    I've watched enough Man v Wild to know that insects aren't the way forward.

    Mentioning prawns is pointless, they got (relatively) big meaty tails for swimming.

    Insects don't they're just crunchy or squishy.

    Naw thanks.

    Us Welsh have been eating seaweed for years, in the form of lava bread. Never had it myself, but I'd like to. I don't see it much around where I live, I think I'm a bit too inland
    Apart from the sound thing- it seems too much like a placebo, and once people know why they're listening to a cow whilst eating a steak etc, I don't think it would work as well- I wouldn't have a problem with eating that lot.
    Insects are used in food dyes and there's apparently, on average, 7ish bits of insect in a chocolate bar, so technically, we've been eating them for years without realising it.
