Sea bugs are delicious and have more meat than land bugs, I've eat crickets before and it's 80% bones/ definitely not meat and 20% actual meat

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You’ve eaten interesting crickets. Those that I know have no bones.

Exoskeleton is still a form of bone, I use bone because it's shorter

[–] Risk@feddit.uk 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not though. Bone is a fundamentally different material.

We knew what you meant, mind.

The bones of my house are also fundamentally different material to human bones. Not really sure what point I'm trying to make here but there you go

[–] Ubermeisters@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

Not really... but yeah there was no question that's what tou meant, in my mind at least.

[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

You're thinking of in bones. Crickets have out bones.

Snail is a "bug" and it's 100% meat.

[–] ramble81@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

And you have escargot for just that. Guess I'm missing your point.

Snails are more in the same category as squids and octopuses, and I know people who won't eat those because they're 'gross'
