I was ready for this delicacy until I saw the inclusion of baby bees. In a world where food was scarce and bees were plenty, I wouldn’t care. And maybe bees are more plentiful there and it isn’t a big deal. But…I dunno. It doesn’t sit right with me.
Thr amount of bees that an average colony loses every day to natural hazards is way higher than would be lost with a serving of this.
Okay. Let’s add to the natural loss of baby bees by eating more of them. We don’t need bees anyway.
Let’s redo that math after a couple million servings
It sounded good until it got to the part where they leave the bee larvae in it
I bet they go pop
Like roe.
No, just squish. You don’t really notice them textureally because of how crunchy the honeycomb is.
Why would a wax honeycomb be crunchy?
Because it’s grilled
It’s not clear to me how grilling would turn wax crunchy, but I haven’t attempted it.
The grilling is the powerhouse of the crunch
idk man, thats just how it works.
Would you prefer adult bees?
I am uncertain as to what this phrase intends:
The bee larvae are voluntarily kept within the honeycomb during the preparation…
Maybe they meant “intentionally”
I feel like that’s the same thing just from a different perspective?

as opposed to doing it on accident or by chance, I think is the intent. They are choosing to keep the bee larvae in.
Are you saying that the Queen Bee is in on it? Like, she just volunteers her little larvae babies to be human snacks?
This sounds like a great way to burn the hell out of your mouth.
