I find the idea significantly less disgusting than eating chickens, cows, and pigs.

Who's hungry, I know I am! Seriously though, 7x the protein than a cow patty! JEEZE... I know a few heavy lifters who would gulp these things down in a second if given the chance. I wouldn't hesitate trying these myself if they were 100% safe to eat.

I found it disgusting in earlier times, but my partner helped me with it. So he doesn´t like Shrimps too, and when I asked why, he answered because of them looking like insects, with chitin body armor, long spider legs, ... My parents are from france, so I never thought of the look of shrimps, since I was a small child I linked them simply with "Mhmmm......delicious...", but when my partner explained me his issues about them, I could see that the similarities and that they really are nothing more then a kind of water insects. Since then my problem with eating insects are gone. "Landshrimps....mhmmmm....." XD

I only dont want to eat raw ones, so I am no Klingon from star trek. ^^

Actually for my whole life i have always loved all kinds of shrimps, crabs, lobsters, etc, and yes these are the "bugs of the sea".. So i think technically, i do eat bugs already, and i even love eating them raw. I especially love eating "Sweet Shrimp" as fresh as possible, peeling the soft shell off, and eating the fresh, soft, wet, pink and white meat. Yum!

^^ We could breed them in oxygen-rich buildings. Pretty safe, because they would suffocate if they escaped.
