The Next Superfood ... No thanks, I'll pass.

[Chadeaux]

As scientists continue to explore how humanity will feed earth's growing populations, researchers are now trying to develop a way to reproduce milk from cockroaches in the lab, according to PopularScience.com.

Okay, if you can get the millennials to accept the lie of Man Made Global Warming, it should be easy to get them to swallow cockroach milk.

... but how many of 'em do you have to milk to get a glass of milk?

You know, we all know what terrible creatures cows are! Their flatulence is one of the main causes of MMGW (cow farts are destroying the ozone layer!), they are the main source of red meat (same scientists say red meat is bad for you), and who else would steal a 2 year old's bottle (yes, it happened to me - my mom told me they took it )?

So since cows are so evil, you guys swill down that cockroach milk. I'll just get rid of the cow's milk for ya and then I'll dispose of the carcasses ... one steak at a time.

You were just taught? We had to try a few different things. At least it would only be for Survival......

Probably not one of the least tasty options ... but these folks are talking about for the general population.

Eat a disease carrying bug and keep alive --- or keep your dignity and die. Well, that's a bit different than, "On special today in our dairy department, roach milk! The perfect complement to junior's rat sandwich or leech pudding!"

Ok, so I didn't read the article, how hard is it to milk the cockroaches? Wouldn't milking a cow or goat be easier?

Tried dehydrated Crickets and Mealworms that were gifted to us one year. BBQ flavour were pretty good actually-crispy little critters they are.

Chadeaux,

The moderators definitely need to add a dislike button feature - not that your post was bad but just the thought of drinking cockroach milk was enough to cause me to lose interest in eating breakfast this morning. Good luck with your hunts. Walt

I'm guessing cock roach farts per gallon of milk, would be similar to cow farts per gallon.

I'm reminded of the Simpson's episode where the school was unwittingly giving the children rat's milk.

I grabbed this info from petsamuri.com . Make of it what you will.

"Do cockroaches fart?"

"Like several other insects, cockroaches fart quite a lot. Cockroaches eat rotting wood, decaying matter, fungus, and reside microbes in their gut which are responsible for producing gas. How often or how much cockroaches fart depends on many different factors such as their diet and type of microbes in the cockroach gut."
