Wet bugs are very distantly related to earth bugs.
Won't you eat chicken just because pidgeons are disgusting? (yet also eaten sometimes)
Pigeons are delicious though
yeah look up the passenger pigeon. Used to be delicious
My uncle had an old silo with a broken roof and he and my dad would sit at the bottom and shoot the pigeons for dinner. I still remember my grandmother sitting outside the house plucking feathers all day. The 90s were fun in my family.
Crustaceans are the closest relatives of insects.
Pigeons literally exist in the us because they were imported for food iirc
For a foreigner: shouldn't it be "distantly related" instead?
Yeah that or distant relatives
Oh, I'm no native speaker either
No problem with pigeon if it's been raised for food, or had a life in nature. I'm just not eating the ones in urban centres that have been eating trash all their lives.
I should've come up with a better analogy...
Depends on the pigeon, some are absolute Chads
That thing is an abomination that won't survive in the wild, let alone cross the bering strait
Oh yeah, no question. People photoshopped the poor bird before there were photos, something like that shouldn't exist.
