There are just so many of them. It seems like they would make for a good food source in tough times.

Well why don't they eat bugs until they aren't starving anymore? Duh.

Maybe because it's easier to come by meager sustenance elsewhere. Even hunting rats or stealing chickens would probably be better than digging for earthworms.

they probably haven't studied racoons long enough to know how to find the best earthworms- like me.

Like an over boisterous patriot's fan, they should probably eat a lot of crow too.

If you think my opinion is idiotic, re-read yours.
Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

A colony of larvae and a few insect traps could yield a day's meal couldn't it? They could even dry preserve them for bad seasons or try to market and export the surplus.

Until people figure out how to eat poop, there will always be hunger.
