Maggots are the answer to feeding a human population that's heading to nine billion people

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — It may be hard to understand the appeal of plunging your hand into a pile of writhing maggots. But the sensation is uniquely tactile, not at all unpleasant, as thousands of soft, plump grubs, each the size of a grain of rice, wriggle against your skin, tiny mouthparts gently poking your flesh.

For Lauren Taranow and her employees, it’s just another day at work.

Taranow is the president of Symton BSF, where the larvae of black soldier flies are harvested and sold as food for exotic pets such as lizards, birds, even hedgehogs. Her “maggot farm,” as she styles it, is part of a burgeoning industry, one with the potential to revolutionize the way we feed the world. That’s because of the black soldier fly larva’s remarkable ability to transform nearly any kind of organic waste — cafeteria refuse, manure, even toxic algae — into high-quality protein, all while leaving a smaller carbon footprint than it found.

In one year, a single acre of black soldier fly larvae can produce more protein than 3,000 acres of cattle or 130 acres of soybeans. Such yields, combined with the need to find cheap, reliable protein for a global population projected to jump 30 per cent, to 9.8 billion by 2050, present big opportunity for the black soldier fly. The United Nations, which already warns that animal-rich diets cannot stretch that far long term, is encouraging governments and businesses to turn to insects to fulfill the planet’s protein needs.

People who’ve seen what black soldier fly larvae can do often speak of them in evangelical tones. Jeff Tomberlin, a professor of entomology at Texas A&M University, said the bug industry could “save lives, stabilize economies, create jobs and protect the environment.”

“There’s no reason why we shouldn’t be doing this at some scale throughout the world,” he said.

So why aren’t we?

When the LED lights are flipped on in the fly-breeding room at Evo Conversion Systems, the whir of thousands of tiny wings fills the air as flies careen about their screened-in enclosures in search of a mate. Evo, which was founded by Tomberlin, shares a wall with Symton. The companies are separate but symbiotic: Evo hatches fly larvae and sells them to Symton, which fattens them up on a proprietary grain blend that ensures optimal nutrition for the animals that eventually will consume them.

The adult flies resemble small black wasps, minus a stinger, and are generally harmless to humans. After they’ve mated, the females deposit clutches of several hundred eggs into small pieces of corrugated cardboard. Evo employees collect the cardboard and deposit them into glass Mason jars to incubate. Several days later, a brood of maggots — each no bigger than a speck of pepper — hatches.

The world is overpopulated with worthless individuals.
Do you
a) proceed to eat maggots and other vermin just to survive
or
b) implement a strict population control across Africa and Asia

How about simply letting them feed themselves instead of sending them billions in foreign aid?

I'm not a fucking gook who will eat literally anything. Maggots are disgusting for a reason, they are sub-consciously associated with death and decay.

How about just exterminating all nonwhites?

...

Thank you juden, very cool!

DERP

They taste a bit like walnuts. I feed them to my turkeys. Eat turkey that eats black soldier fly larvae and you will taste the best turkey. Let's talk turkey about Black soldier fly larvae.

wouldn't wild turkey that eats a natural foraging diet taste better than some lazy backyard turkey that pigs out on maggot-slop?

In Christianity, the fly is a symbol of decay and death and in mythology, the second most powerful demon after Lucifer himself is Beelzebub; Lord of the Flies. (In the book there are some subtle hints he might be a background antagonist, but its so subtle and minor it could just be coincidence.)

Its thus no surprise that the Jews want us to eat maggots, its yet another way of humiliating us and confronting us with the decay and death of our civilization.
Here is my idea; kill all non whites including everything east of the Dnieper or if possible work them to death and then use their bodies as natural fertilizer to feed the fields we will use to feed our white children.
After that we will exterminate the common housefly and the other pests Jews want us to eat and life a better live.

Hey Rabbi, watcha postin?

Hmm…

Isn't it hilarious how left of center ecological types insist over and over again that the current human population is not an issue and that the planet could easily sustain 20 billion humans and then turn around and say that eating bugs and maggots and laboratory grown meat is not only good but necessary like this in the same breath?

The human population is not heading to 9 billion nigger.
Even if it were, humans could feed themselves well surpassed even 20 million.

the answer we see proven time and time again is a global monoculture is not a sustainable system. nutritional value is mediocre and it breeds pests and disease that increase operating expense until the system collapses.

you are what you eat and if you eat a diet with base product insect derived protein fed on chemicals and refuse you'll have a body and mind that matches your diet.

all in moderation, plants should form the base of your diet as adolf taught us.

Because they also say in the same breath that the earth is overpopulated.

In other words Jews get the best fresh kosher meats….. and goyim should be forced to eat litteral toxic shit with maggots mixed in which makes them ripe for disease and sickness which will make them more dependant on Big Pharma $$$.

If you want to gallivant around Africa sterilizing the niggers, be my guest. I just want to stop feeding them. Or better yet, trade food for resources. Honest food for honest cobalt. And if they want to use slave labour to supply it, I literally don't care. They can have our niggers too. Maybe Africans understand how to make them work…

Still not viable for UN and Human Rights logistical reasons.

All for China and Chinese restaurants, the rest of us get the good stuff

Does Israel even have enough farmland to feed themselves?

The Earth is too overpopulation with whites in their eyes. Shitskins are apparently fine even though they breed like rats due to r selection theory. A good idea is stop giving aid to fucking Africa and watch those fuckers starve to death

lets just feed jews to niggers, niggers to turkeys and then we have a workable solution
kind of like a turducken, is John Madden still ailve? We can call it a turjewnig. He can show how to do it during the niggerbowl halftime show. Shove a dead jew inside a dead nigger inside a turkey, put in oven for 6 hours, etc

If the West would simply stop sending Gigatons of food every year, the population of Africa would be about ZERO very soon. Well, zero niggers.
Kill the niggers now! Africa for the Elephants!

Lmao, first thing that came to mind.

Why don't we focus on population control instead in the Third World. This Earth can't hold 7 billion long-term and most of the growth is non-white. Western governments need to stop propping them up. Ecofascism now

They started to eat it in Canada I read since meat is so expensive there they started to sell insect powder as substitute like wheat in substance, they bake bread out of it which comes from banana flies. The next gen is here.

Nah. That's not how population works. It'd probably be about 100 million, maybe 200.

End aid to Africa except for free contraception. Don't allow Indians or muslims to immigrate to your country. Problem solved.

Funny, I made that quote. I definitely think that will prove to be a valuable strategy once the race-war ignites. Tarrant had already come to realize this, that children and women are part and parcel of the larger problem and in fact even more valuable targets.

Here's your darling "ecofascist" Pentti_Linkola


“”We even have to be able to re-evaluate Fascism[2] and recognize the service that philosophy made 30 years ago when it freed the Earth from the weight of tens of millions of overeating Europeans, six million of them by an almost ideally environment-preserving means.[3]

“”Every act which disrupts the progress of Earth's life destroying Western culture is positive.[4]

why don't we eat niggers instead?

Every intelligent white/asian favors eugenics

Don't worry the White Nationalists are here to help White people with their niggers, kikes, ecofascism, shitskins and other powerful arguments for the Jews.

you are what you eat that's why

They don't, actually. Left of center ecological groups have been avoiding the population question for a very very long time now.

Dumb fucker, he thinks the holocaust happened and wants to depopulate the West first.

Because we dont want to eat vermin

The (((un))) is just a worthless pest and should be exterminated too.

Yeah all the plebs can eat maggots while the elite dine on steak and chicken. Fuck that. I've seen snowpierecer. Traitors and scum bags….eat maggots?…fuck those people.

He's based. The Western way of life is secular, materialistic and destroying the whole entire Earth. That is what he hates.

can sustain them by not eating animals, it's not a contradiction.

Everything was good, fine, and stable until the illegal invaders showed up.
When they took Constantinople, we lost the gateway to Europe, and now we have so little power. They come in huge hordes, just to destroy.

They don't have a purpose. They live, but what do they accomplish? They are slaves to their Jewish religion, and any concept of enlightenment, science, or invention are unknown to them.

That is why their population skyrockets, and then they devour all of the food and resources, and then everyone around them starves to death. That means us.

We will die if we do not do something about the illegal invaders. They are not our friends or allies. They are enemies and they must be countered.

can they make that into Spaghetti-o's though?

Eugenics would depopulate blacks and spics long before it depopulated any whites.

They're raping white women, molesting white kids, forcing poverty onto white societies, genociding white people… and now they will make us eat bugs. Great.

(checked)
No. They would be forced to resort to fishing until it runs out and such without (((free food handouts))), and that would fail to feed the population of (((israel))). After all, (((it))) is a tiny, overpopulated desert.

Not at all. You can greatly improve the taste of an animal by controlling what it eats. Wild animals are described as "gamey" for a reason. If you compare a pig eating a wild diet (boar) to a pig fed on acorns and fruit tree droppings, it's an easy choice which one to pick. Or a deer that been eating succulent grass, clover and hazelnut leaves in western oregon vs one that's living a tortured existence in the mesquite brambles in eastern oregon. Big taste difference, and I'm sure you can already guess which one is better.

Note, this is about taste, not nutritional content. Cows fed corn (basically sugar, which causes both them and humans to pack on fat) taste better (unless you are a food hipster that finds gameyness novel), but grass fed cows have a much improved omega-3 to omega-6 ration, and thus are better for you. Which is why you should also buy butter from grass fed cows. I have no idea how acorns or insects would effect such a ration in an animal, it'd have to be tested.

It should also be said that there are differences even between the same type of food. Acorns with different tannic acid levels are going to produce at least slightly different flavors. Same with insects.

The writer meant it as if the grown flies can attack humans or not.

Gas yourself (((kike))).

Jesus fuck. There was a time in America where the animals were so abundant that you could shoot in any direction and kill something, and the soil was healthy. We don't need to extend agriculture to harvesting insects. That's food for our food if we would just leave the natural processes of the earth alone.

Every time these kikes come up with some new agricultural development they do so ignorantly and just fuck things up worse.

I say feed all the real food to africa so it reaches the predicted 2,400 million population by 2050, having multiplied itself by a factor of ten in only 100 years.
The rest can go to asia to feed the 1,400 chinese insect clones, and the 1,300 poo-in-the-loos.
Meanwhile, pour maggots on the dead in europe and north america, fatten them up, then feed the maggots to the living.
Utopia.

Perhaps predictive programming, perhaps it's a coincidence.

Starvation is more about political and logistical problem. We do not lack proper supplies. Industrial capitalist worlds OVER produce food all the time. We never consume all the products on shelves. In fact, many of them get thrown away once past their shelf life.

Retard (((jew))), gas yourself.

Well, I think we all know where this is going. And the jews absolutely love it.

simply ebin

Adolf was malnourished and deteriorating like all plant-based people. If anything he taught us the opposite by sacrificing his health to an idiotic diet.

The reason he had a plant based diet was because he was fucked up from the chemical attacks in WW1, and couldn't tolerate many animal foods.

No, stopping christcucks from breeding and sustaining turd worlders is the answer.

FIFY

Eugenics had the right idea, just the wrong implementation. You need to utilize a procedure that won't cause massive butthurt amongst the dipshits. Soft kill is the best way to do this, something non violent and very slow over time so that they won't notice. You can institute universal basic income but only on the condition that you get rendered infertile, if we wipe out basic jobs through robotics then people will be falling over each other desperate for this kind of solution. You could also have collusion between all major food producers or a mandatory government regulation to add chemicals to the food that slowly renders humans infertile over time.

could you homestead on a 50x80 lot? assuming families of 4, giving you 200x320 total minus one of those for the house itself so 150x240 giving you almost 1 acre per family if i didnt mess the calculations up

why even go through the trouble? get rid of welfare and stop subsidizing dumb peoples kids and itll work itself out. even black IQ was steadily rising until the government stepped in

You're right, we just feed eight billion to the maggots.

Or we could just apply population controls globally, like the successful Chinese one-child policy.

Why don't I use (((you))) and (((your kin))) as fuel with which to cook it all?

Unfortunately you need fuel to burn bodies because they aren't that flammable apart from hair.

This level of black humor is becoming more common on Zig Forums. Thanks for the laugh. Afraid most did not see the humor.

lol…too funny

Texan degenerates.

This would cause all sorts of riots, civil unrest and condemnation from many other nations. You have to do this slowly over time and wrap it in a progressive skin to get the dipshits to go along with it. What do they do when they want to fuck people over with new legislation for example? They give it a nice name to lampshade the horrible shit underneath, the "Patriot Act" is an excellent example. Think of how bad it would look to the dipshits if a politician opposed something patriotic or you could name it something like the "Save the Women and Children act". It doesn't matter if the actual bill does the complete opposite of the name, the dipshits will flip the fuck out if you oppose it and you won't be getting elected next year. Think of all the stupid fucks that supported Obamacare thinking it was socialized healthcare, NONE of them actually read the damn thing despite taking all the time and effort to go out and show their support with signs and all that shit. Do things slowly and give it deceptively nice gift wrapping and the stupid fucks will let you get away with anything. Boiled frogs.

You could always eat the elite…you are what you eat.

Filtered for religious D&C and attempting damage 'in group' preferences of Europeans over something as retarded as 'religion'.

allowing companies to sterilize people through food would be even worse. so would making sterilization a condition for UBI. nobody wants to be sterile, even people who dont want kids want the option most of the time

the only way to do it is to make it fiscally impossible for a single mom to get knocked up out of wedlock and still be able to do anything fun at all

That sort of defines 'single parenting' already and that hasn't stopped them. BioChem extermination is the only solution.

Step 1: Stop sending niggers food and money
Step 2: Build manned walls and fences
Step 3: Patrol Mediterranean and other water routes with armed gunboats.
Step 4: Abolish EBT and similar welfare programs

There you go the world population will drop by half within a generation and you don't have to build a single gas chamber or hyper oven.

welfare queens make them stretch. and theyll just leave their kids unsupervised to do what they want. the biochem route is will only work if they dont know its happening and even then itll backfire, with the jews using it to exterminate everyone else

Completely unfounded bullshit. He was still taking in some animal foods anyway, including heart extract via syringe. Besides, it makes zero sense that someone would be less able to digest the most bioavailable food and have to switch to mostly indigestible "food".
