So it's not that we grow chicken to feed it to salmon, we use the leftovers that would otherwise go to waste. This is good!
Granted, of course, that sanitary standards are followed. In the EU, I don't expect it to be a problem.

Y'all, a lot of farm raised tilapia is fed chicken manure or pellets made with manure. Look up some Aquaculture setups where chickens poop into a pond to feed fish, the fish feed water to fertilize plants.
Typically, pathogens don't jump and survive between species like this. This is a zero percent news item other than "why use inefficient chickens for the protein input?" Black soldier fly large eating compost and food waste should be the go-to option.
If we ever get invaded by aliens, they are gonna laugh their asses off.
So why don't you eat food you grow
See, it's really smart actually. We feed it to the chicken, then we feed the chicken to the salmon and then ww throw away most of it, but we eat some of it.
Your planet is dying.
LET PEOPLE ENJOY THINGS
Brother, I crave prions.
Feed chicken to salmon
Feed Salmon to chicken
Holy shit I just found an infinite food hack
And next, were going to feed salmon remains to chicken. Close the circle of life.
We have already had that for a long time, fishmeal for example. One of the contributing reasons for high amounts of dioxins in egg production.
And the fishy taste of eggs... Can remember egg packages with the claim 'made without fishmeal'
and then salmon starts to taste like chicken.
If you have a small lot you can keep chickens yourself. Know a few people around me doing that.
Just one step away from genetically engineering the chicken salmon!
mmm... salmon wings
Mad salmon disease is in the air.
Not how that works.
It will be when they start feeding them left over salmon heads, tails, fins, etc. These capitalists wont let that fine source of calories go to waste.
The chicken or the salmon?

What if we make them eat the grasshoppers instead of us?
I'm not worried about salmon or chickens eating me.
chickens are omnivirous so yes they would eat you, they just need like hundresd of them to peck you.
Can we at least try eating grasshoppers first?
The wings get stuck in my teeth 😞
I haven't tried huffing the powder though

This is my new favorite meat replacement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjFDFsg7l60
More protein per pond than chicken breast with none of the fat and none of the colesterol.
People are ready to do anything, but stop eating meat.
Is that surprising? At all? It's literally in our nature.
I mean, no offense but I will continue to do what I can to be able to eat meat, it makes my life better.
I'm all for synthetic meats, or lab grown meats, as those become available. If there are more sustainable options, great. (As long as it tastes like meat)
The nature of humans is absolutely not to eat meat everyday.
If anything, it's much more natural for humans to go without meat, than to eat meat everyday.
Also cancer is rarely making your life better.
It is the nature of humans to crave meat, we enjoy it. That's the real issue. There is a very real quality of life benefit it provides to us. Maybe you don't need that, and if so, that's great for you. But because it really does make life better for so many people, you're not going to see the majority of humans giving up meat any time soon. That's the reality.
Nah dude, I love the taste of meat but I am 99% vegetarian since 2012 or so and we absolutely don't "crave" meat. That's a learned habit. Find enjoyable vegetarian meals and you will eat less and less meat.
Hey, I lived mostly vegetarian for several years as well, I get it. It's totally doable, you do sort of get used to it. But when I stopped cooking for vegetarians, I went back to eating meat, and it was a relief.
We have become obsessed with protein pushed by the beef industry in response to the increasing recognition that we are eating too much (cardiovascular disease, bowel cancer risks, etc)
