Dr Reuben Shipway, lecturer in marine biology in the University’s School of Biological & Marine Sciences, said the new system could be a "fantastic way to reduce your carbon footprint".
He said: "We urgently need alternative food sources that provide the micronutrient-rich profile of meat and fish, but without the environmental cost - our system offers a sustainable solution.
"Wild shipworms are eaten in the Philippines – either raw, or battered and fried like calamari.
"But we’re thinking of naked clams being more popular as a white meat substitute in processed foods like fish fingers and fishcakes."
But who is Dr Reuben? Some white dude or some other race perhaps?
Wild shipworms on toast with cinnamon and sugar, yummy. It's so good you'll taste it twice as your body rejects it
pretty sure adding cinnamon to anything makes it a breakfast food.
worms don't have chitin, right? that's the biggest problem with bugs. worm burgers were very briefly a thing in the 70's. one of those shows like That's Incredible did a thing on them. my grandparents in MI had a place near them that grew earthworms for fishing and had big raised beds for them behind the store. one of those rural convenience stores that's larger than the building it's in and is packed floor to ceiling with at least one of almost everything ever made. they had a small takeout restaurant for burgers and hotdogs. a couple summers they advertised worm burgers but i don't know if it was a joke or not.
having said that, i'll probably stick with beef fer mah burgers, pork fer mah brats, and chicken fer mah tendies.
Notice how they want YOU to reduce your carbon footprint, even though you don’t give a shit about anyones carbon footprint. Why cant these fuckers just fuck off and worry about theimselves
Oy, but the wormies is kosher and delicious! We plan to put them in all the goyslop at Safeway and A&P and 7-11 hot dogs and jerky. Mmmm! Cajun worms!
There's no way he's White.
