Should Christians Eat Insects?
It is reported that 2205 insects are being eaten around the world in 128 countries as part of the food supply. This is being pushed by the World Economic Forum, United Nations, and the government of the United States of America? Does the Bible endorse eating any insects? If so, which? Some people promote "cockroach milk" as well as larvae-derived "Entomilk." Does France have the biggest insect farm? Are there thousands of insect farms in Thailand? Does the New Testament support that Christians are to be holy and not eat unclean meats and insects? Could God have had health reasons to tell His people not to eat certain creatures? What are some health issues that eating insects, mealworms, etc. have reportedly caused? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie address these matters.
A written article of related interest is available titled ' 2205 insects now in food supply–will this stop famine?

The government of Singapore is in favor of more insect consumption:
August 28, 2024
Singapore has just greenlit 16 types of insects to eat as foods. …
Grub’s up in Singapore where authorities have designated 16 creepy crawlies as safe for human consumption.
Locusts, five types of beetle grub and even a species of honeybee are among the minibeasts deemed good enough to eat, after a decision in July. The Singapore Food Agency has also greenlit imports of pasta, chocolate bars and crackers that contain insects as ingredients. One restaurant – House of Seafood – has added 30 insect dishes to its menu, ranging from sushi topped with silkworms to squid ink pasta sprinkled with house crickets. … insects can also be fed on waste … https://www.positive.news/society/as-singapore-approves-16-types-of-insects-as-food-for-humans-theres-a-growing-buzz-around-the-sector/

The Push for Bug-Based Diets Continues

Proponents market insects as sustainable and culturally diverse food, with over 2,000 species consumed worldwide. However, historically, insects were mainly eaten for survival, not as delicaciesInsect-based products like “cockroach milk” and larvae-derived “Entomilk” are being developed, despite production challenges and potential allergy risks, especially for those with shellfish allergiesThe push for insect consumption is part of a larger “green agenda” promoted by organizations like the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), claiming insects are more sustainable protein sources than traditional livestockThis movement is part of a globalist agenda to control the food supply, alongside synthetic meats, aiming to replace traditional farming with patented, ultraprocessed foods
Mealworm meatballs, anyone? Or how about a salad with a side of crickets? With the recent changes transpiring in the food industry, it’s highly possible that these will be the food choices you’ll see on restaurant menus in the future. …

… People All Over The Globe Are Already “Eating The Bugs” On A Regular Basis
August 26, 2024
Are you ready to “eat the bugs”? For a long time, we have been told that “eating the bugs” is just a “conspiracy theory”, but as you will see below more than 2 billion people around the world already eat bugs on a regular basis. …
A report that was recently published in a major scientific journal says that 2,205 different kinds of insects are now being consumed all over the globe…
A 2024 report titled “The global atlas of edible insects: analysis of diversity and commonality contributing to food systems and sustainability,” has identified 2205 species consumed across 128 countries. Published in the science journal Nature, it notes that Asia has the highest number of edible insects (932 species), followed by North America (mainly Mexico), and Africa. The countries with the highest consumption of insect are Mexico (452 species), Thailand (272 species), India (262 species), China (235 species), and Japan (123 species). …
The largest insect farm in the entire world is located in France…
In Europe, France is the center of European insect farming for animal and plant feed; a biotechnology company, InnovaFeed owns the world’s largest insect farm at 55,000 sqm that produces 15,000 tons of protein a year. …
An app that allows Germans to scan food products at the grocery store indicates that a whole host of things that Germans regularly eat have bug parts in them…
A German app called Insekten Scanner scans the barcode of a food product to tell you whether it includes insect parts in the ingredients. The app, which was first developed in late 2023 and now has over 100,000 downloads, recently went viral on X after several viral posts caused outrage among Americans.
The account Wall Street Silver (@WallStreetSilv) posted a video on May 2 of a user in a German supermarket scanning items with the app, which they captioned “‘We will NOT eat the bugs’ has become reality.”
In the video, the user repeatedly receives the message “Insekten Gefunden” or “Insects Found.” Items include pudding cups, premade meals, and even chocolate candies. “Everything has bugs,” one user replied. …
The very first “insect restaurant” in the United Kingdom is getting a lot of attention for the very unique dishes that it is offering to customers…
Grub Kitchen in Wales, the United Kingdom’s first insect restaurant, focuses on sustainability and is the vision of chef Andy Holcroft. The menu ranges from minced insect Bolognese to mealworm hummus and mixed insect pakoras fried with vegetables and served with mango chutney. Grub Kitchen largely has good reviews on TripAdvisor, but one reviewer was sceptical of eating insects, writing: “If this is the future, kill me now.” …
It is being reported that Thailand already has over 20,000 insect farms…
According to the Trade Policy and Strategy Office, Thailand can produce over 7,000 tonnes of economic insects annually. Thailand has more than 20,000 insect farms, especially cricket farms, the office said. …

While the Bible seems to allow for the consumption of crickets and grasshoppers, black soldier flies, mealworms, and silkworms are biblically unclean–thus should not be consumed by Christians (see also The New Testament Church, History, and Unclean Meats):
20 ‘All flying insects that creep on all fours shall be an abomination to you. 21 Yet these you may eat of every flying insect that creeps on all fours: those which have jointed legs above their feet with which to leap on the earth. 22 These you may eat: the locust after its kind, the destroying locust after its kind, the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind. 23 But all other flying insects which have four feet shall be an abomination to you. (Leviticus 11:20-23)
29 These also shall be unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth (Leviticus 11:29)
God’s people are not supposed to eat bugs.
We are to be holy in all of our CONDUCT:
15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” (1 Peter 1:15-16)
When the Apostle Peter wrote that he was quoting the part of the Hebrew scriptures that were against eating unclean creeping things:
44 For I am the Lord your God. You shall therefore consecrate yourselves, and you shall be holy; for I am holy. Neither shall you defile yourselves with any creeping thing that creeps on the earth. (Leviticus 11:44-45)
Holy people do not intentionally conduct themselves to eat biblically unclean creatures.
Let me also add that it is almost 100% certain that COVID became a problem because of people consuming biblically-unclean meats along with the viral research that was done in the lab at Wuhan (watch also: COVID, Pandemics, and Unclean Meat).

Thousands of Bug Eaters Are Getting New Incurable Diseases, Doctors Warn
Thousands of bug eaters around the world are developing rare and incurable diseases, according to doctors who warn the act of eating insects is harmful to humans.
July 26, 2024
As the consumption of eating bugs has risen in popularity in recent years thanks to the push by the WEF to replace meat with insects, people who dine on bugs are increasingly being diagnosed with horrific illnesses as a result.
Infowars.com reports: The Bible instructs us in Leviticus 11: 20-23, not to eat insects, with the exception of orthopterans, specifically, locusts, crickets, and grasshoppers. Even so, permission to eat these is not instruction to do so, and there certainly isn’t reference to the Israelites making insect offerings, or of Jesus encouraging his disciples to eat them.
Eating these in a survival situation — like that of John The Baptist — is one thing, but to have insects discreetly added to our foods, or touted as the future of the human diet, as is happening in Europe, North America, and abroad, is a threat to our health, and is disgusting. …
Contamination of Insect-based Foods
Bioaccumulation of poisonous heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium and others, and of pesticides including herbicides, has been documented to occur in insects used for food. This means that as insects grow and develop in a contaminated environment, or if they eat contaminated plant matter, toxic heavy metals or other toxins build up in their bodies over time. Therefore producers must carefully source insect feed, and ensure the rearing environment is free of contaminants. …
Mealworms (Tenebrio molitor) larvae, full of feces, and supposedly suitable to eat.
One of the most alarming potential problems of food insect production is pre-or-post-processing contamination by Aspergillus, a common fungus that releases the mycotoxin known as aflatoxin. Cooked and dried insects can reabsorb humidity, and could grow Aspergillus, as could pre-processed insects. Aflatoxin is heat stable and cannot be eliminated by cooking insects contaminated by Aspergillus. Mpuchane et al. (1996) identified aflatoxin in edible grasshoppers at a concentration of up to 50 micrograms/kg. The European Union [EU] allows a maximum of 15 micrograms of aflatoxin per kilogram in plant based foods***, but disturbingly, the EU does not have regulations for aflatoxin in animal based foods including insects. Aflatoxin is the one of the most carcinogenic chemicals known to man. This problem must be addressed, but unfortunately, anyone encouraging you to eat insects is not looking out for your health in the first place. …
A 2017 paper published in Clinical Toxicology presented evidence of histamine poisoning from insects, in three cases in Thailand, including an outbreak affecting 118 patients, and another incident involving 19 students. The paper focused on direct evidence in another case in which 28 out of a group of 227 students were sickened, and concluded the cause was histamines present in grasshoppers and silkworm pupae they ate at a seminar. The researchers analyzed the leftover foods, and what the 28 sickened and other 199 students ate, and alleged that the histamines were implicated, which like tropomyosins, are heat-stable (resistant to degradation by cooking). The sick students’ symptoms included hives, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and breathing problems (bronchospasm and dyspnea). …
Insect exoskeletons feature sharp protuberances made of chitin, including spines, spurs, and rigid ‘hairs’ called setae. As noted by Mézes (2018), the pointy shape of these protuberances may cause them to be mechanically toxic, by damaging the digestive tract. This is not the chitin per se causing toxicity; instead, it’s the shape of the structures formed by chitin leading to toxicity.
Spines are narrowly conical, rigid, fixed projections, found on grasshopper legs, for example. Spurs are similar to spines but are on a socket allowing movement. Setae are hair-like, and contain nerve endings for sensory perception. The hairs on the legs of a fly are an example of setae. …
It also seems reasonable to surmise, and even hard to ignore, that chewing an insect exoskeleton would produce sharp fragments that could damage the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. Similarly, sharp particles could result from grinding insects during food processing. …
God had a reason to command us not to eat crustaceans and most insects. It’s misguided to believe that science is likely to fully elucidate the medical reasons for God’s instructions regarding food, especially considering the plethora of factors involved in human health that complicate dietary scientific analysis, and the sometimes-delayed health effects attributable to various factors. … the idea of eating insects is disgusting. The best thing to do is to refuse to heed World Economic Forum head Klaus Schwab’s exhortations to “Eat ze bugs.” https://thepeoplesvoice.tv/thousands-of-bug-eaters-are-getting-new-incurable-diseases-doctors-warn/
Some lawmakers do not seem to want consumers to know about the use of bugs as part of the food supply as the following suggests:
Democrats Push to Hide Insects in American Food Supply
April 8, 2024
In Minnesota, state Senate Democrats blocked an amendment that would have required foods containing insects to be labeled.
Republicans are arguing that insects should be listed in the ingredients of food products to inform consumers.
However, for reasons that are not immediately clear, Democrats are pushing to keep bugs a hidden ingredient.
Last week, the Minnesota Senate passed S.F. 4225 – an omnibus agriculture policy bill. …
However, before the bill was passed, Sen. Torrey Westrom (R-Alexandria) introduced a commonsense amendment for food labeling.
The amendment would require food to be properly labeled if it contains either insect products or artificial “cell-cultured” food like lab-grown meat. …
However, the bill’s Democrat author Sen. Aric Putnam,(D-St. Cloud) shot down the proposal.
Putnam insists that, although “consumers should know what they are consuming,” the issue of labeling insect parts in products was a “future problem.”
He falsely claimed that insect-based “foods” and lab-grown “meats” are not available yet, and therefore, do not need to be addressed. https://slaynews.com/news/democrats-push-hide-insects-american-food-supply/
The Bible warns about the “ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness” (Romans 1:18) and not letting people know that biblically-prohibited insects are in packaged foods is wrong suppression of the truth. Hopefully, the lawmakers in Minnesota will realize that.
Last September, we put out the following sermon about the food supply:

1:07:48
Evil is Affecting the Food Supply
God gave humans food and said what He made was good. What about unclean animals? What about genetically-modified organisms (GMOs)? What about ‘bioengineered foods’? What about lab meat? What about human-cloned salami? What about ‘Piggy Sooy’? Are Christians supposed to eat what is good according to Isaiah 55:2? What should we eat? What should Christians avoid eating? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more.
Here is a link to the following: Evil is Affecting the Food Supply.
Now is Michael Snyder right, that despite the increasing consumption of insects, famine is still coming?
Yes.
Jesus taught that famines were part of the beginning of sorrows:
4 Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. (Matthew 24:4-8)
The rides of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse (Revelation 6:1-8) relate to what Jesus warned would happen during the beginning of sorrows.
The Book of Revelation says that there will be more food shortages and food price inflation:
5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.” (Revelation 6:5-6)
Food price inflation has hit in many places, but will worsen.
We put together the following related video:

14:44
3rd Horseman of the Apocalypse and Food
There are reports about food price inflation around the world. While it is worsening in many areas, some believe it will improve in 2023. Instead, could prices continue to rise in 2023 and get much worse in 2024 and thereafter? What are the causes of food price inflation? Is there any connection between weather, government policies, fertilizer prices, energy costs, economic sanctions and food price inflation? What are we seeing in reports from the United Kingdom, Hungary, and South Africa? What about impacts from Russia’s ‘special military operation’ into Ukraine? Could EU and/or USA policies be effecting any of this? Is the ‘black horse’ the one associated with famine, food shortages, and food price inflation in the Book of Revelation? Are there any physical lessons we can learn from ants according to the Book of Proverbs? What are some spiritual steps we should take according to Jesus? Dr. Thiel and Steve Dupuie address these matters and more.
Here is a link to our video: 3rd Horseman of the Apocalypse and Food.
Although, according to Jesus, the time of sorrows is not one to trouble Christians, notice something else that He did say:
34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:34-36)
Worse things are coming, and Jesus stated what He said He wanted all of His people to be doing. So, watch and get ready.

Deberemos comer insectos, si queremos salvar el planeta
¿Grillos fritos en el menú escolar, leche hecha de larvas de mosca y boloñesa de gusano de la harina para la cena? Estas son las comidas ecológicas que podemos esperar. ¡A comer insectos y buen provecho! Los primeros intentos de alimentar con insectos a amigos y familiares no fueron bien recibidos. "¿Qué demonios te pasa?" preguntó mi esposa cuando le conté que los bocados de galleta con sabor a tomate y orégano que habíamos comido con nuestros G & Ts estaban hechos de grillos. "¡Espera, soy vegetariano!" gritó nuestro amigo, lo que provocó una discusión un poco irritada sobre si los insectos cuentan como carne, cuántos miles de artrópodos equivalen a un mamífero y considerando que casi toda la agricultura industrial implica la matanza masiva de insectos, ¿cuál es la diferencia? Luego probé algunos gusanos de harina secos Crunchy Critters en mi hijo de siete años. “No sabe mucho”, dijo. Su amigo tampoco estaba loco por sus saltamontes. "Las piernas son raras". Pero los entendidos insisten en que los especímenes secos de un paquete simplemente no se pueden comparar con los artrópodos de temporada de corral asados en sus propios aceites. "Los frescos son mucho más sabrosos, por supuesto", dice la Dra. Monica Ayieko, investigadora principal de insectos de la región occidental de Kenia, y una de las dos mil millones de personas que se estima que comen insectos con regularidad. “Me encanta el olor de las moscas del lago asadas o los grillos. Es un olor sabroso y agradable. Esto es algo de lo que nos enorgullecemos en África: siempre comemos alimentos frescos". El único éxito rotundo que tuve fue con mi hijo de nueve meses, que parecía casi tan interesado en los gusanos de búfalo disecados como con casi cualquier cosa que pudiera meterse en la boca. Y eso es lo mejor. Si hay que creer en los evangelistas de comer insectos, ortópteros, larvas y cualquier número de las más de 900 especies comestibles de insectos podrían formar parte regular de su futura dieta. La Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación ha instado a que todos aprovechemos más este recurso "subutilizado". Y dados los problemas de la sostenibilidad del suministro de alimentos, puede que no sea una cuestión de elección. La dieta humana actual es insostenible Debería ser obvio para cualquier persona con apetito que la forma en que comemos no es sostenible, y que algo fundamental tendrá que cambiar si no queremos terminar con la mitad del mundo obeso y la otra mitad bajo el agua. "La civilización está en crisis", fue el veredicto de la comisión internacional EAT-Lancet sobre la cadena alimentaria mundial en 2019, que contenía una advertencia terrible de 200.000 años de historia humana que culminaron en un desastre ecológico. La agricultura industrial moderna, el capitalismo extractivo, el afán de lucro, los gobiernos acobardados ante el Big Food y nuestros propios y codiciosos apetitos occidentales, todos deben asumir una parte de la culpa. Es en este contexto, esa "comida del futuro", la comida que promete ser buena para usted, los animales y el medio ambiente, ha adquirido el entusiasmo que una vez se asoció con las empresas emergentes de Silicon Valley. Los consumidores más jóvenes están cada vez más ansiosos por tomar decisiones éticas y sostenibles, y los capitalistas de riesgo de la industria tecnológica también están cada vez más interesados en invertir en ellas. La compañía californiana de “carne alternativa” Beyond Meat, valorada en alrededor de $ 9 mil millones, ha lanzado sus productos en 445 supermercados británicos y se espera que su rival, Impossible Foods, lo haga pronto. La carne cultivada en células no está muy lejos: en diciembre, la Agencia de Alimentos de Singapur aprobó el primer nugget de pollo completamente sintético del mundo. Aún así, la historia reciente sugiere que las empresas estadounidenses de alimentos procesados respaldadas por inversores en tecnología que compiten por dominar el mercado de proteínas probablemente no conduzcan a la utopía. La proteína de insectos no es tan "sexy" como las compañías cárnicas alternativas, admite Leah Bessa, de la start-up sudafricana Gourmet Grubb, pero cree que cualquier persona interesada en la seguridad alimentaria debería buscar múltiples soluciones. “No creo que debamos esperar que un solo alimento resuelva las cosas”, dice. “El problema con nuestro sistema agrícola es que no tenemos suficiente diversidad para atender a diferentes climas y paisajes. Lo bueno de los insectos es que puede cultivarlos en cualquier lugar y en cualquier entorno. No destruyen la tierra, puedes cultivarlos a partir de subproductos de la industria alimentaria y están llenos de nutrientes". Pero advierte: “El movimiento de alimentos de origen vegetal ha tardado décadas en llegar a donde está ahora”, dice. "Si los insectos pueden hacer lo mismo, será una gran victoria". Insectos para la agricultura y ganadería Actualmente, la mayor parte de la inversión se dirige a insectos como alimento para otros animales. Mars Petcare anunció recientemente una nueva gama de alimentos para gatos a base de insectos, Lovebug, y los insectos muestran un gran potencial como alimento para la acuicultura y el ganado. La empresa francesa Ÿnsect recaudó recientemente 225 millones de dólares para abrir la granja de insectos más grande del mundo en Amiens, que pronto producirá 100.000 toneladas de proteína al año. Mientras tanto, la empresa británica Entocycle recibió una subvención del gobierno de 10 millones de libras esterlinas para construir una granja de larvas de mosca soldado negra en las afueras de Londres. Como modelo de negocio sostenible, parece demasiado bueno para ser verdad. Los insectos no solo hacen un alimento mucho más eficiente, sino que también pueden alimentarse con desechos y su "excremento" (excremento) se puede utilizar como fertilizante. Actualmente, alrededor del 33% de las tierras de cultivo en todo el mundo se utiliza para alimentar al ganado. La Dra.Sarah Beynon, entomóloga que dirige Bug Farm, una granja de insectos en funcionamiento y atracción para visitantes en Pembrokeshire, cree que tendremos que acostumbrarnos a una idea diferente de la agricultura: instalaciones verticales de alta tecnología operadas por robots dedicadas a maximizar el rendimiento de proteínas. Por inhumano que parezca, desde el punto de vista del insecto, enfatiza, es un buen negocio. “Con los insectos, podemos cultivarlos de forma intensiva sin comprometer su bienestar. En realidad, son más felices cuando están cerca de muchos otros insectos de la misma especie ". Los ciclos de vida de los insectos también son muy propicios para la agricultura industrial: en ciertas etapas de sus vidas producen calor y en otras etapas necesitan calor, por lo que una granja interior puede ser más eficiente que una granja al aire libre en un clima más cálido. Aún así, a Beynon le preocupa que el uso de insectos para la alimentación del ganado pueda terminar sirviendo para apuntalar un sistema alimentario disfuncional y derrochador. "Es un trampolín importante, especialmente cuando se trata de reemplazar la harina de pescado insostenible, pero en realidad no ataca el problema en sí", dice. El problema es nuestro loco consumo excesivo de carne. “Es un poco loco para mí alimentar a los insectos con los subproductos de la agricultura basada en plantas, que luego se introducen en un sistema de cultivo basado en animales. Cuantos más pasos adicionales tenga en la cadena alimentaria, más energía y alimentos estará desperdiciando. Siempre es más eficiente y sostenible dar un paso adelante En otras palabras Si no queremos dar el paso drástico de simplemente comer más verduras ... probablemente deberíamos acostumbrarnos a comer insectos nosotros mismos. Si bien los consumidores occidentales no están preparados para los insectos enteros, Bessa cree que no son necesariamente reacios a las innovaciones, como su Entomilk, que está hecha de larvas de mosca soldado negra ("BSFL" en el lenguaje de la industria) que son ricas en grasas y minerales. incluido el calcio. “La gente está empezando a ser más consciente de lo que hace la comida, no solo en sus cuerpos sino en el medio ambiente, y ahora viajan mucho, sus mentes están mucho más abiertas. Están más dispuestos a probar lo que podrían haber considerado asqueroso antes". El mercado de insectos comestibles crecerá a 6.300 millones de dólares en 2030, según un informe de Barclays. La investigación de Sainsbury's encontró que el 42% de los consumidores británicos están dispuestos a probar insectos. Pero una cosa es persuadir a alguien para que pruebe un producto de insectos novedoso y otra hacer que forme parte de su compra semanal. Este es el desafío que está tratando de enfrentar Francesco Majno, el empresario italiano detrás de los bocadillos de cricket de los Pequeños Gigantes que intenté imponer a los invitados de mi casa. No es tan sorprendente encontrar el espacio de inicio de insectos plagado de cáscaras de empresas que apenas emergen de la etapa de pupa. La primera empresa en penetrar en un supermercado británico fue Eat Grub, cuyos insectos completos aparecieron en Sainsbury's en 2018, solo para ser retirados silenciosamente de los estantes este año (aunque todavía están disponibles en línea). Majno cree que ofrecer insectos en productos "familiares" como galletas saladas y chips de tortilla es una ruta más segura hacia la aceptación: "Puedo decir que tenemos un enfoque completamente diferente en comparación con Eat Grub u otras marcas de insectos similares como Crunchy Critters", dijo. dice. "Creemos que la única forma de abordar el factor asco es dándoles a los insectos una forma familiar que pueda ayudar a cualquiera a probarlos por primera vez y a comprender lo sabrosos y nutritivos que son". No es difícil transmitir eso en un puesto del mercado, donde Majno puede entrar en modo vendedor. ¿Sabías que los grillos emiten menos del 0,1% de las emisiones de efecto invernadero de las vacas para producir la misma cantidad de proteína? También requieren mucha menos agua: se necesitan 112 litros de agua para producir un solo gramo de carne de res, pero menos de 23 litros para un gramo de proteína de insectos. (Los insectos también vencieron cómodamente a los garbanzos en este sentido). Pero es difícil lograr que todo eso se transmita en el pasillo de bocadillos de Sainsbury's, donde Small Giants ahora compite con Cool Original Doritos y Really Cheesy Giant Wotsits, alimentos con una larga historia, grandes presupuestos de marketing y puntos de precio más bajos. Majno se siente alentado por el número de clientes habituales y el hecho de que recientemente ganó un premio Great Taste Award. Pero en verdad Realmente no podría haber distinguido los bocadillos de los Pequeños Gigantes de las galletas de centeno más baratas. Y una vez que superas la rareza de morder insectos y productos de insectos, te das cuenta de un problema más urgente: en realidad son bastante insípidos. También hay más obstáculos. Numerosas especies de insectos están avanzando hacia la aprobación regulatoria en la UE, pero, después del Brexit, no está claro si Gran Bretaña adoptará estos estándares europeos o comenzará de nuevo, lo que retrasaría años la cría de insectos británica. Y aunque hay una mayor demanda, los insectos estacionales están sujetos a numerosas restricciones. Eduardo Gómez, que dirige el especialista en comida mexicana MexGrocer , dice que no puede importar delicias mexicanas como escamoles (larvas de hormiga y pupas), ya que los productos de carne y queso de México están prohibidos en Europa. “Los restaurantes de alta gama me han estado preguntando durante años, por favor, ¿pueden traer insectos? El futuro está en los insectos. Eventualmente, la gente se dará cuenta de esto. Es lo mejor que podemos hacer ahora mismo si queremos salvar el planeta". Por el momento, sin embargo, nuestro futuro de insectos en el oeste se siente bastante beige: productos altamente procesados enriquecidos con polvo de proteína de insectos, a diferencia de los saltamontes con guacamole o los guisos de albóndigas de mosca del lago que evoca el Dr. Ayieko. Y vale la pena enfatizar que a pesar de todo lo que se habla de los insectos como una proteína de vanguardia para los occidentales, para muchas personas, los insectos son un alimento del presente, y también en peligro de extinción. Los ojos de la Dra. Monica Ayieko se abrieron al potencial de las proteínas de insectos cuando se casó con una familia que vivía en la costa este del lago Victoria, cerca de la ciudad de Kisumu. Aquí, las pequeñas moscas del lago pululan tan abundantemente que parecen humo saliendo del lago. Cuando se agolparon en su casa, los rodeó con spray para insectos antes de que su suegra la reprendiera, quien le mostró cómo recolectarlos en una red de barrido y triturarlos en bolas de masa, que luego se pueden secar, arrojar en un guiso o se come crudo. Cuando regresó a su propia aldea, se encontró con que el hijo de un vecino había muerto de desnutrición, y cree que esos casos podrían evitarse si se hiciera un mayor uso de esta fuente de proteínas fácilmente disponible. Ahora basado en la Universidad Jaramogi Oginga Odinga en Kenia, ha dedicado su carrera a investigar las tradiciones locales y desarrollar el cultivo de insectos como una ruta hacia la seguridad alimentaria. “Este es un conocimiento local, altamente autóctono, no es algo que se nos haya impuesto”, dice Ayieko. "Ahora tenemos 120 estudiantes de maestría y doctorado aquí, estudiando agricultura sostenible y su investigación debe ser sobre insectos como alimento y pienso, lo cual es muy alentador". Sin embargo, mientras que la ingestión de insectos se está volviendo más aceptada, los insectos todavía son vistos como un alimento para los pobres. “Algunas personas de las zonas rurales ahora pueden permitirse comprar pollo y pescado, lo que significa que aquellos que no pueden sentir vergüenza de recolectar insectos, no quieren ser vistos como pobres”. Mientras tanto, la destrucción del hábitat significa que hay menos insectos para recolectar. “Actualmente estamos viendo una reducción en la población de moscas de los lagos debido al cambio climático. Cuando publiqué mi primer artículo sobre las moscas del lago, había una gran cantidad de insectos. Ahora, en mi vejez, lo veo cada vez menos". Una de las hormigas favoritas de Ayieko , carebara vidua , ya no se puede encontrar. “Este insecto es un gran manjar en mi comunidad. Pero ya no lo ves. Normalmente, emergería de los humedales, pero cortamos árboles, construimos carreteras, colocamos concreto y hemos hecho todas las cosas que hacen los seres humanos”. Existe una amarga ironía en la idea de que, así como los insectos se presentan como soluciones novedosas a las disfunciones del sistema alimentario occidental, están desapareciendo de las áreas en las que se confía genuinamente, áreas que probablemente sufrirán los peores efectos. del cambio climático. La Dra. Sarah Beynon se hace eco de este punto: a medida que los estándares occidentales de riqueza se mantienen como algo a lo que aspirar en el mundo en desarrollo, las tradiciones y la experiencia locales se están perdiendo, quizás de manera irreversible. Pero ella también ve la educación como el camino hacia un futuro mejor y ha estado trabajando con las escuelas locales para presentar a los niños pequeños los problemas de sostenibilidad. “Los jóvenes elegirán alimentos en torno a la sostenibilidad, siempre que el producto sepa bien y tenga una textura a la que están acostumbrados. No quieren ver partes de insectos, por lo que se trata de usar la proteína y los nutrientes. Pero no debemos ocultar el hecho de que son insectos". Ella ha ayudado a desarrollar un producto llamado VEXo mince, una carne picada a base de plantas e insectos que se puede usar en todos los contextos de carne picada: hamburguesas, albóndigas, etc. Tan pronto como Covid retroceda, espera incluir insectos en los menús escolares en Pembrokeshire y más allá. “Esa es la clave. Si podemos normalizarlos en los menús escolares, será un gran paso para el futuro”. Y no creo que sea demasiado exagerado. Nos gusta pensar que comemos lo que comemos debido a tradiciones consagradas: que los platos nacionales, como el pollo asado, son parte de lo que somos. Pero no hace tanto tiempo que el sushi y los sándwiches en paquete se consideraban extravagantes e inútiles, y hace un par de generaciones, el pollo asado era un alimento de élite. En la década de 1950, en Gran Bretaña solo se consumían alrededor de 1 millón de pollos al año. Ahora, esa cifra está más cerca de mil millones. Majno me dice que sintió que un bocadillo de insectos era la forma de presentar la idea de la entomofagia a los consumidores, mucho más manejable que una comida a base de insectos. Pero vale la pena destacar que los bocadillos son en sí mismos un fenómeno relativamente nuevo. Los Doritos se inventaron en 1966; Wotsits en 1970. Cuando yo era un niño en la década de 1980, "comer entre comidas" todavía era el tipo de cosas a las que tu abuela se burlaba. Y este tabú cultural ha sido borrado principalmente por el poder de la industria alimentaria, que siempre se ha esforzado por crear nuevos momentos para comer. El investigador estadounidense de obesidad Barry Popkin ha recopilado una amplia evidencia que muestra que los niveles de obesidad aumentan a medida que los países en desarrollo adoptan la dieta occidental, de la cual los bocadillos son una parte clave. Eso podría llevarte a la desesperación. Pero mi punto es: nada sobre cómo comemos es fijo. Si podemos enfocarnos en el pollo de granja industrial, Wotsits and the Impossible Burger, probablemente podamos enfocarnos en la harina de grillo, la leche BSFL y la boloñesa de gusanos de la harina. Y, con suerte, podemos mirar aquellas culturas que comen insectos con regularidad con admiración en lugar de disgusto. La Dra. Ayieko me dice que es optimista. “Si no podemos encontrar una forma segura de sostener a estos insectos, estamos caminando hacia la extinción. Pero si podemos, estamos a salvo. Nosotros les proporcionaremos y ellos nos mantendrán a nosotros". Por Richard Godwin. Artículo en inglés Read the full article

Facebook just fucking recommended me "entomilk" which is apparently "milk" made from black soldier fly larvae and I'm actually crying this shit is an afront to god
people who grew up drinking dairy milk and switched to non-dairy later in life: ugh almond milk is so thin and watery, I accept coconut milk or cashew milk only!
me, who grew up drinking rice milk: almond milk is almost TOO flavorful and rich, wow

First Insect Restaurant in Woodstock
Observation: Gourmet Grub recently opened the first Entomophagy restaurant, The Insect Experience, in Woodstock. The aim is to change perceptions and drive trial of eating insects, which are a sustainable and ethical protein.
Popular menu items include mopane fries, black soldier fly larvae croquettes, ice cream made from insect larvae, date balls, cream wafers and chocolate, which all are covered in mealworms. There is an option to buy insects to cook at home, insect powder and Entomilk or you can order on UberEats.
Insect protein is also seeing growth for animal feed. AgriProtein, a global company started in Cape Town, makes quality natural animal feed from fly larvae.
Future: About 2 billion people eat insects (including eggs, pupae, lavae, adult insights) daily. With food security being an issue, insects provide a healthy, cost-effective and sustainable source of protein. It’s likely that we will all be eating insights in the near future. It will become a norm in Western society, not only reserved for tourists, tequila bottles or Fear Factor.

This luxury ice cream is made from insects
After a long day under the beating South African sun, an ice cream might be a tempting treat. But would you be able to enjoy it if you knew it was made from bug "milk?" Gourmet Grubb, a Cape Town-based start-up, is hoping to use ice cream to introduce the public to the world of eating insects. Its luxury ice cream uses EntoMilk, a dairy alternative made by blending the larvae of a tropical insect known as the black solider fly. The UN predicts that the world will need to double food production to feed the global population by 2050 and has long promoted insect farming as a sustainable alternative protein source to traditional livestock. Everybody loves ice cream "We set out to change the way insects were seen, produced and used in the food industry," said Leah Bessa, who co-founded Gourmet Grubb in 2017. Although over 1,900 insect species are estimated to be consumed by humans worldwide, insects are yet to reach the mainstream of Western cuisine. The insect "milk" ice cream is made with natural ingredients, such as raw honey, cocoa, spices and organic peanut butter. "We were expecting a lot of push back, however people have been extremely open minded," Bessa told CNN. "Everybody loves ice cream." Centipede vodka and fried crickets: Is this the future of food? The ice cream flavors include chocolate, peanut butter and Christmas spices. According to Bessa, EntoMilk has "a slightly earthy undertone" and gives the ice cream "a rich, creamy taste." But it's not just about the taste -- Bessa says insect ice cream is also high in nutrients. According to Gourmet Grubb EntoMilk is five times higher in protein than dairy. According to the UN, it is widely accepted that insects provide nutrients that are comparable to meat and fish. "Insects are inherently high in fat and protein and minerals," said Bessa. "The black solider fly has protein and fat content comparable to beef, and zinc, iron and calcium that are much higher than that of beef." EntoMilk is also lactose-free and gluten-free, and unlike dairy milk it does not contain any carbohydrates or sugars. Environmentally friendly "We decided to focus on an industry that is under a lot of pressure due to animal welfare and environmental concerns," said Bessa. "Insects aren't sentient beings, and they only grow in the conditions in which they thrive, so the farming conditions cater to their animal welfare needs." EntoMilk is a dairy alternative made from insects. It is full of nutrients and environmentally friendly to farm and produce. According to Gourmet Grubb, liter for liter, EntoMilk is more water and energy efficient to produce than any dairy milk or dairy milk alternatives. "Insects need very little water, feed and space to grow," Bessa explained. "They also produce little/no greenhouse gases compared to traditional livestock." Because insects can be farmed indoors in small, controlled environments they can be reared in urban areas, reducing the impact of transporting the milk to the city. It also means they are less at risk of being impacted by external climate patterns, which would affect cattle and crops. There is also potential for insect farming to reduce waste. "Some insects, like the black solider fly larvae, have the ability to feed on a wide range of organic matter," said Bessa. "For example, the spent grain left over from brewing beer is used to feed the larvae." The future of food? Currently, Gourmet Grubb's ice cream is only distributed in South Africa, but the global edible insects market is predicted to reach $1.2 billion by 2023. As well as ice cream, Gourmet Grubb helps develop savoury dishes. These are polenta fries made with mopani worm powder. Last month, Gourmet Grubb also opened a concept popup store, which included savory insect dishes such as insect powder pasta, chickpea black-larvae croquettes and mopani worm hummus, to serve alongside its ice cream. "We need to find alternatives that will be able to sustain the growing population and create a sustainable and environmentally friendly farming system," said Bessa. "The only way EntoMilk can truly make a difference and reduce the pressures of traditional dairy is if it is accepted and consumed on a global scale." Read the full article
