European Union Approves House Crickets And Mealworm Larvae For Human Consumption

Yesterday the European Union officially approved the sale and consumption of larvae derived from mealworms, and house crickets.

The WinePress reported in July of last year that the European Food Safety Authority gave their stamp of approval on the consumption of mealworms, to which companies immediately went into action to produce mealworm products.

According to DW, this latest approval allows these larvae powder, frozen, paste and dried forms, and the crickets can be sold as partially defatted powder.

It’s such a huge challenge to deal with the rising demand for livestock products. We pretty much have to pursue every avenue of solution.

Tim Searchinger, technical director of the food program at the World Resources Institute, a US environmental research organization, said

And even though many of the world’s political figures, investors, and activists have said that they want people to make a shift to eating more bugs and plants, and less meat and dairy, the EU Commission says this is not a push to get people to change their diets.

DW notes that last week the Commission tweeted, “Nobody will be forced to eat insects.” 

Other parts of Europe have been urging people to start eating more insects instead of meat, such as the case with some schools in the U.K. feeding their students mealworms and locusts so they would stop eating less meat.

How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

Job 25:6

You know what they say, “You are what you eat.”

[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [3] Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. [4] For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: [5] For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

1 Timothy 4:1-5

Be that as it may, while these globalists feast on their prime rib and fine cheeses, they want the plebs to eat the creepy crawlers as a substitute, which only fulfils scripture yet again; though, as I have noted many times before, I still the real underlying goal is to get the masses to adopt cannibalism.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
