    Most of those insects are raised under better conditions than your average meat delivering animals...

    Would all of you find interesting to see released a micro version of Worms? like tardigrades, acari and such. I want.

    Scientific storytelling is everyday more needed.

    How about some tapeworm to tape up the topic?

    The mopane worm (actually a large, edible caterpillar) is supposedly among the world's most nutritious edible insects, and a great snack whether fresh or dried.

    I'm a vegetarian, but I'm considering a pet that loves mealworms and dubia roaches.

    Caterpillar and the snail are the most usable for me at the moment.

    I think caterpillar and Blue fit together in the scene nicely.

    I have a coworker who raises crickets at his home to eat. He is quite a healthy person but I confess I have an aversion to deliberately eating bugs. i would do it in a pinch but not while there are alternatives.

    For me it's more the possible sensory input, which wings and tiny legs could give me in my mouth. So no chocolate covered crickets for me.

    I can't really imagine reaching for the toothpicks so that I can pry some insect legs from between my teeth *shudder* :P

    Actually, the legs are pretty much like fishbones: dangerous to eat and without any nutritional value. Pity, the thing that really creeps me out is the squishy, paste-like, non-descriptive insides, not the crunchy and easily recognisable legs. Which I've been told I absolutely didn't eat as a child. And if you can't trust your parents...

    If it had included a peripatus, I might have broken the internet rushing to buy it, especially if it had also included a slime spray prop.  As is, I'm still on the fence.  They're nice, but I only have so much money and none of them are as immediately useful to me a a velvet worm would have been.
