Small grubs and other tiny insects can be found in your fruit and vegetables. It is virtually impossible that you have not ingested insects in one form or another during your lifetime. In fact, most insects are edible, but there are a few species that are especially palatable, nutritious, and easily obtainable. I will concentrate on these. Many species of insects are lower in fat, higher in protein, and have a better feed to meat ratio than beef, lamb, pork, or chicken.
Insects are tasty.
Even if you are too squeamish to have them as a main dish, you can make insect flour and add it to bread and other dishes for an added protein boost. Insects are easy to raise. There is no manure forking. No hay bale lifting. No veterinary bills.
