Fresh live tussah silkworms, about $3.15 per pound, can be eaten as a food.

Fresh live Tussah silkworms, sourced for the low, low price of $3.15 per pound, have surfaced on the shadowy bazaar known as Reddit's r/Weird. A worried citizen, /u/room0001, posted the find with the alarming headline that these worms "can be eaten as food." But we at Weekly Weird News ask: how long until the "can be eaten" becomes "we make you eat them"? The source, available at https://www.reddit.com/r/Weird/comments/1w5x4ux/fresh_live_tussah_silkworms_about_315_per_pound/, details the unsettling availability of this live food supply, and one must wonder what forces are behind the mass farming of wriggling worms undercutting the global beef cartel. This is not a new "weird" thing; silkworms have been consumed for centuries. Yet, the manner, the price per pound, and the predatory euphemism "fresh live" suggests we're all being fattened for an alien pallet. Why hoard tons of squirming fodder unless... the silk curtain is falling to reveal a protein-based currency? The bottom line is that when the supermarkets empty, only those wealthy enough to buy worms or mad enough to eat them will rule the food chains of New Seattle Canada or beyond. We see here a classic case of humanity's food taboos being slowly dismantled. First, bug memes surface. Then, a targeted Reddit sell that makes bugs into an irresistible econo-meal. Finally, at $3.15 a pound, that silkworm is out of the bag forever. This is either a noble push for ecological sustainability—tussah eco-farming, hardy oak worm lots are relatively low impact—or part five of a global government mental conditioning project where accepted never-ending buzzing is fine. The source, r/Weird, is a seed to world of green protein skyrocket. In our 62 years of reporting on ten-foot Bigfeet and alien cattle camps, the cheapest protein you can buy is always the most suspicious. The law of conservative game keeps that: if it's low cost per pound, it's a tripping foundation for the ghost world. The financial market in worms is not just a boutique diet; it is a quiet subsistence fish bat over the head by the agri-elite. Me, I'd rather talk turkey, but you wouldn't have it in plated monetary perspective. Weekly Weird News urges readers to sample with dignity: if you're going to eat the future of protein, at least cook the fire marks out and keep an eye on any corners where heads are thrown. Tussah might one day save you from the empty grocery shelves, when the revolutions may start by the sale, which doesn't get fed, whispers.
