Blackchamber posted:Do humans eat sloths? I’d have to Google to find out if there are any people eating sloths. But even if we don’t, most animals don’t know that. (Anthony Bourdain taught me that there are still plenty of communities eating gross things nobody should eat.) Although Zeriel is probably right and my interpretation of the sloth’s perspective is wrong. Photographer startled the sloth while it was taking its biweekly crap and it was all,”Could you not?” Edit: Yes. There are a few South American tribes that eat sloth, though it’s not a staple food.

SubponticatePoster posted:Kind of an old joke, but imagine how hungry the guy was that first ate a lobster or crab. Rewarded in their desperation by deliciousness. Lobster was considered gross for a decent chunk of human history and used to be fed to prisoners because it was cheap and easy.

Lobster goes bad fast and was not considered useful back when we couldn’t ship them anywhere off the coasts without going bad. Then they started to be able to be shipped but shipping was expensive and so lobster got expensive and “hard to get”, creating a fake scarcity and putting them on a pedestal that wasn’t really there

When I was a kid it was one of my favorites because it was delicious and so large that I'd have tongue sandwiches for a week afterwards. I also liked how it would gross out my friends who came by. I later learned that we got it because it was really really cheap.

Bogus Adventure posted:Land bugs: loving gross, dude. That's almost exactly how I feel, and I kinda hate that I can't bring myself to eat land bugs. But what is the closest land animal to a prawn or lobster that might taste the same? I'm assuming that just any insect is not going to taste like crab.

Apparently Tarantulas can be pretty close when cooked properly, and yeah the main hindrance for land arthropods is that not many of them approach crab and lobster size or even shrimp size and even fewer of those that do have appreciable amounts of edible meat on them Huzzah! posted:from the fanart thread Knew that one would show up here

I'm assuming that just any insect is not going to taste like crab. Crickets/grasshoppers are pretty widely eaten and are supposed to be pretty good! I read a paper for a class about how the various native people of Utah ate them pretty extensively, and how a "plague" of locusts was a cause for celebration. Of note in the paper was the group of grad students who experimented with various cricket-based recipes and dubbed the Mormon Cricket the "Desert Lobster" for its culinary qualities.

We were also too poor to afford real meat and my mom used to puree beef tongue and feed it to me as my first solid food. I was very grossed out when I discovered this, but these days I'd give it a try (not the pureed version, mind)
