  • I'd be suspicious of anything made from algae considering the high levels in some algae of a neurotoxin called BMAA, which has been linked in studies to ALS. Also, prawns aren't even nice, why make fake ones!?

  • Yes, I'm not really interested in any of that, and I've never even heard of BMAA.

    I suspect prawns are perfectly nice creatures if you don't kill them, although I can't say I've made their acquaintance often. :)

    As for their corpses, which certainly aren't nice, who knows if this stuff would really prevent people from killing them?

    Some of this smacks a little too much of the 'fake vs. real' that's in that famous film, er, I think it's called 'Knife Walker' or something.
