The Last Jedi‘s second trailer dropped yesterday, and after watching an incredibly crappy game of NFL, the internet was thrilled.
And then it got hungry. For Porgs.
For some reason, a reason I cannot fathom, people on social media got super excited. About eating one of the new characters in Star Wars.
I shit you not.
I don’t think I could eat a Porg. Actually, I totally could.

A running theme of my twitter this morning has been people demanding to eat the Porg. I appreciate the nihilism, my friends. I truly do. pic.twitter.com/91J0qBXNN1

Rae from Gizmodo has collated more madness, if you want to go down that rabbit hole.

The Last Jedi trailer leave you with a feeling of suspense, joy, sadness, euphoria?”]
Question is: would you eat the Porg? Apparently Chewbacca does, although I don’t know if there’s something in Star Wars canon somewhere that says that’s a thing.
But what if a Porg fillet ended up on your plate? Yay or nay?
