Can Eating Insects Save the World?
As much as I know its possible to eat and survive on insects..
I hope the globalists are not planning to convince us that this may be a solution to the worlds hunger problems..
As shown on a TV documentary tonight...
Documentary which sees presenter and food writer Stefan Gates immerse himself in the extraordinary world of hardcore insect-eating in a bid to conquer his lingering revulsion of bugs and discover if they really could save the planet. With 40 tonnes of insects to every human, perhaps insects could offer a real solution to the global food crisis - where billions go hungry every day whilst the meat consumption of the rich draws vast amounts of grain out of the global food chain. Stefan's on a mission to meet the people in Thailand and Cambodia that hunt, eat and sell edible insects for a living. But nothing quite prepares him for bug farming on this terrifying scale, from stalking grasshoppers at night to catching fiercely-biting ants. Stefan also goes hunting for the hairiest, scariest spider on the planet - the tarantula - and asks if the solution is for everyone, the British included, to start eating insects too.
Processed insects already go into food. Starbucks use them in frappucchino and McDonald's do too.
