If we keep destroying our natural environment, one day we'll have to use technology to process to make food from thing you won't accept. At that point you can either choose to be malnourished or be more open and explore new diets.

Well considering recycled urine is a thing, and used on the space station, your proposition isn't very far fetched. See below for more information:

The situation you described as your own does not apply for the majority of people and is only anecdotal. There are a lot of primal instincts that are no longer helpful in modern controlled environments. Overall, I think if humans were more open-minded to eating things such as other parts of livestock (innards), sea creatures, and insects, we'd be able to drastically reduce our carbon footprint per capita.

It's like trying to stop global warming. People in developed countries will never settle for anything that has the appearance of being worse than what they're used to. But honestly, apart from the fact that you think they're disgusting, why won't you eat bugs?

Polar/Grizzly hybrids are actually happening, due to their territories overlapping now. But I don't think there are many grizzlies in Manitoba

Do you ever travel and see the natural wonders of our own Planet? As much as I love space exploration, I still thing exploration on our own planet should come first, especially the oceans.

But is it easier to use for you? It could be worth it if it decreases the level of physical stress or difficulty for the surgeon.
