Is this for real? If you're from the U.K. and have some information to share on this, please do. In the meantime I'll continue to consume protein the traditional ways.

So long as it's clearly labelled , fine. I wouldn't touch the stuff personally. But if they start to sneak it into biscuits, cakes etc, the way makers did with genetically modified ingredients, then that would be A BAD DAY (n)

I agree. At least they're letting us know.
 
Think what our Grandchildren might be eating in the next 100 years.
It may be some kind of a mixture of probable unidentified nutrients.

Not the first time.

Insects are commonly eaten in Mexico and featured in many Mexico City restaurants.

I am surprised they allow that. When I watch that show To Catch a Smuggler, they always are suspect of insects being taken out of their environments. Where are they collecting them? Sounds absolutely disgusting. Anyone that ingests that nonsense is crazy. Eat a nut! A nut for a nut! :D
