“Like all bullies, conservatives are deeply afraid of pretty much everything."

OTTAWA – The Conservative Party of Canada has officially announced that in addition to walkable cities, vaccines, and transgender children, they are also deeply afraid of eating bugs.

“We WON’T Eat Bugs,” the CPC said in an online petition it posted this week. “No one is asking us to, but we’re so scared someone might, and it could be Justin Trudeau. And that makes us furious and so very frightened of this version of Justin Trudeau that we made up who is making us eat bugs.”

      I would try it, looks interesting. The canned stuff though… Ugh

      The boiled or steamed snack food is served in paper cups with toothpick skewers. Its aroma has been described as “nutty, shrimp-like, and a bit like canned corn” and the canned-type smells very much “like tire rubber”, while the texture is firm and chewy.

      Edit: are those just the ‘de-silked’ pupae from the silk industry?
