I said this wouldn't be to everyone's taste. But people do and the fact that they keep doing it seems to suggest that bugs aren't so bad.

Same for me, thanks for saying so but design wise, it might be easier and more realistic to make it a wild food you gather, I saw somewhere more that a billion people eat these things. The farm concept is a bit too modern if you ask me. You could also have a shop that makes them into luxuries, a good use for chocolate.

It's not that modern actually. You don't need much resources or space to farm insects. Just water, food, and something for them to live in. What do you think an apiary is?

Gathering wild bugs is a pretty cool idea as well. I don't know if there is a practical limit on how many foods the trees can spawn.

New Structure: Bug Delicatessen
Getting hungry while shopping the market, why not stop by your local bug delicatessen for a crunchy, or not so crunchy treat. Now dipped in your choice of honey, or chocolate.

You could add a duplicate model of the silk worm farm (so an insect farm and a silk worm farm but they look the same) so that there was either a drop down or it created random types of insects (like the apiary produces honey or beeswax). The latter method would also open up possibilities like ink (luxury), medicines, etc.
OR, you could make another tiny building like the coop in the dock building set that raised bugs. Another good protein source other than clams and fish? Maybe both a land and a water option? [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wink.png[/img]/emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" title=";)" width="20" />
