Italians will not eat the bugs and they will be happy.

Update: The Italian right-wing government under Georgia Meloni is now planning on also banning lab grown meat and synthetic foods in order to protect Italian food heritage and the health of the people.
Those breaking the ban risk being fined up to €60 000.
Naturally the BBC calls the ruling government ”far-right” when talking about this new proposed law. Funny that. I remember a time when it was the left and hippies that advocated against synthetic food.
The Italian government has announced several decrees to crack down on the use of insects and bugs in Italian cuisine.
Don’t mess with Italians and their food. They will not be happy.
They take their food very seriously. And with good reason. I have been there many times and the food is amazing.
Just a normal food item like bread with ham and cheese tastes so much better than in other countries. I don’t know what it is, but they sure do something right. I suspect it has to do with fresh ingredients with no chemical additives.
Italy wants to make it very clear that eating insects has nothing to do with real Italian food.
This comes shortly after the EU authorized food made from crickets, locusts and meal worm larvae among other bugs.
Mmmm, yummy. I sure do want to munch on some larvae and locusts for as a lunchtime snack…
The new rules require that food containing insects be labeled with large letters and displayed on separate shelves from the rest of the food so that people don’t accidentally eat the bugs. The insect food will also be labeled with warnings about risks associated with eating it.
And traditional Italian food like pasta and pizza will be BANNED from containing flour made from insects.
”What the decrees provide for is a label with the origin of the product, the risks associated with consumption and the quantity of insect meal present, but we have also provided special shelves where they can be displayed inside the shops..those who want to choose crickets, larvae and locusts can go there and those who don't want to, as I imagine most Italians, can keep away" said Francesco Lollobrigida, Minister of Agriculture
Italy had no problem with locking people inside and issuing vaccine mandates. But messing with their food is going a step to far and has awakened them to The Great Reset agenda. They are finally saying no!
We have seen a large push lately for eating insects. For some reason we are being told that eating bugs will somehow make the weather better.
Just think about that for a moment. Eat the bugs in order to make the weather better. How insane does it sound when you actually realize what they are pushing?
And don’t think for a moment that what we are seeing in the Netherlands doesn’t play into this. They want to seize the farms in order to cut down on climate emissions. What will people eat instead? Of course plant based food and insects will be promoted in its place.
