FDA says to not eat cicadas if you have a seafood allergy
Billions of cicadas are emerging in the Eastern U.S. To some, they're a delicacy. To others, they're a danger.

The cicadas are back, and with them a warning from the Food and Drug Administration: Don't eat these critters if you have a seafood allergy.

"Yep! We have to say it! Don't eat #cicadas if you're allergic to seafood as these insects share a family relation to shrimp and lobsters," the agency tweeted Wednesday.

Since the cicadas have emerged, recipes have popped up across the internet, as some describe the critters as a rare gourmet treat.


Fish and shellfish are two of the eight major food allergens that must be labeled on food packaging, according to the FDA, along with milk, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soybean. Together, these allergens account for 90 percent of food allergies in the U.S.


Allergies related to eating insects, however, need more study, according to a recent report by the Food Agricultural Organization of the United Nations. The report, which focused on the safety of eating insects, noted that "individuals already allergic to crustaceans are particularly vulnerable to developing allergic reactions to edible insects, due to allergen cross-reactivity."

That means the immune systems of certain people are sensitive to certain proteins found in shellfish and that similar proteins found in insects could also trigger allergic reactions.

The Brood X cicadas, as the group swarming parts of the Eastern U.S. is known, emerge from the ground every 17 years. Billions will take to the trees to mate and lay eggs before they die, leaving behind crunchy carcasses.

Go checkout how big Central Park is and where it start and where it ends.. you talking about a park that’s literally 50 blocks long that literally stretches from midtown Manhattan to basically the start of Harlem.. so you have that whole area plus where ever these motherfuckers start flying to..I’m pretty sure they’ll start flying below midtown and up higher pass the start of Harlem..so yeah if it’s millions of motherfuckers in that park that’s not a good fucking look at all

No dog in this fight

But 1.3 square miles is not exactly what I'd call "insanely huge"

20 city blocks is considered a mile long.. this is 51 blocks long.. which would be considered 2.5 miles long... than there’s the width that’s not included which is probably over a half mile wide... to understand how much space that takes up for the city is hard to explain.. but just imagine you eliminate Times Square, 34st(Empire State building), 14st (union square area), trump tower, 5th Avenue, Washington square park(23st), Lincoln center, and more.. that would be Central Park length and width combined

It's 2.5 miles long and a half mile wide.

It's 1.3 square miles.

I'm not sure what we're discussing here. How big 1.3 square miles feels in NYC?

Because I'm gonna go with like 1.3 square miles.

Was just trying to explain how much land that covers from a sightseeing perspective and to show when it comes to Manhattan how much that spreads out.. that’s why we say it’s big cause if you take away a lot of those areas you’ll be like oh ok Central Park is a nice chunk of land
 
Man.. them shits is a constant droning noise all fucking day. All in my trees and bushes. I knew I should have bought some yard marines in April. Also, the cicada killer wasps haven't been seen around these parts since last year..

They're all the fuck over my back yard here in SW Ohio. I haven't cut the grass there in two weeks, cause they swarm when they hear the mower.
