No love for the rubber ducky isopods?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Much Love from me for them (i have them myself)

I saw them on a terrarium YT video (Serpa design?);

I don’t have any, but I gotta say, they are my favorite isopods now.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Saw a video once about cooking these. Apparently they taste like shrimp.

All crustaceans tastes the same I guess like how all land animals taste like chicken

"Tastes like chicken" is because we made them taste generic, as a side effect of them growing much faster. "Chicken of Tomorrow contest"-effect.

I'll never understand how anyone likes the taste of the black ones.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Bit crunchier than I remember them being as a kid. Then again, what isn't these days.

I'm still looking for that spinning wheel that tells me if I'm eating pear or grass.
