drown it in butter and whos gonna know the difference?

Has the shell, legs, head, intestine and organs been removed from the cockroach so that only the meat is left? I would like to see the machinery needed to replicate the edible part of a lobster abdomen (or tail as it is called) in a cockroach.

The part that people generally eat on a lobster is the muscles of the claws and the muscles of the abdomen. The rest is generally discarded. It similar to how most people don't tend to eat the hair of cows, but rather the meat from cow muscles.

I would claim that it is actually a large difference between eating a cockroach and a lobster.
