Eating insects? Why not?
Date:2019-05-17Views:1168
In the past few years, we have often heard about the discussion of insects.


What's the meaning of this?

Well, it's actually very simple: eating insects.


Although it may sound strange and disgusting to people living in Western countries, eating insects is common and can be found in everyone's diet. In many cases, they are even considered to be genuine delicacies, derived from ancient and long traditions.


Insect food is common in many countries in Africa, Asia and South America, but why is it also spread in the West?


In 2013, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) published a report highlighting the major issues of future protein sources.


By 2030, the world's population will reach 9 billion. With the development of China and other countries, this will greatly increase the global demand for meat. If we add billions of animals that will be raised to support this need, it is clear that traditional protein sources are not enough.

So what should we do?

There are basically two possible solutions:


- Dependence on less used sources of protein;


- Looking for alternative sources of protein;


Insects are found in less commonly used protein sources.

Insect dinner? Why not?

This is an exciting challenge. Are you ready for the food of the future?
