Vincent M. Holt
Vincent M. Holt was the author of an 1885 manifesto, titled Why Not Eat Insects? that laid out the arguments in favor of eating insects.[1][2]
He argued against eating lobsters. "The lobster, a creature consumed in incredible quantities at all the highest tables in the land, such a foul feeder that, for its sure capture, the experienced fisherman will bait his lobster-pot with putrid flesh or fish which is too far gone even to attract a crab."
