This is true - and is why the Irish were forced to attempt to eat grass
during the potato famines. They did not survive well on it, as most of
us know. But I wanted to cover all bases - even the possibility that
goofy humans would attempt to eat something they saw their prey eating
out of desperation or curiousity. Humans have a long history of trying
to eat all kinds of interesting things - flowers, grains, stuff dredged
out of ponds, etc. : ) Beats me how we ever even thought of eating
lobsters.

That's a very strange theory - though I've heard stranger that turned
out to make quite a lot of sense once I had all the facts. I'll have to
read into this further. Thanks.
