who was going to warn me how much troll food consisted of grubs. as in, literal *troll babies??!* i think i’d rather starve then eat anything on this planet actually…thanks
do you eat your adults too? who in their right mind is looking at a child and starts thinking of their next meal??? i have so many questions. i’ve never been so appalled in my life.

well... we're just mainly insectivore o: it's just how we evolved, and it's really nutritious too
i think i understand now!! so is it safe to say its just a basic prefix in “troll lingo” then?
i think i’m just gonna try not to think about everything i just learned too hard. i would just say “veganism for the rest of my life it is then” but everything i’ve seen so far seems to be some variety of ‘meat flavored’ so i’ve just officially given up on that forefront
Trolls are largely carnivorous, but if you actually sit with the population for a minute, there are too many trolls on Alternia *alone* for them to be able to manufacture enough of *one* food product purely off of dead troll grubs out of the brooding caverns. There are farming planets across the empire dedicated to food production because that’s just impossible, and due to how trolls reproduce, it’s not going to be farming troll grubs just for that. But generally speaking there is no escaping the whole “eating bugs” thing. Not on the bug people planet. It’s the same as how humans often eat other mammals, like cows.
that is the funniest way you couldve possibly explained it, but alas, i’ll take it
I can't resist either making a reference or cracking a joke at least once a minute. It's a curse.
