Why Eat Insects?
Why Insects?
Entomophagy is the eating of insects. It is estimated that up to a quarter of the world's population practice this, however, the western world continues to be slightly dubious about the practice of eating insects.
With an ever growing population, we need to come up with a sustainable solution to help fight hunger. We think eating insects could be the answer!
Sustainability
Insect farming is much more efficient than livestock farming, it has much a smaller impact on the environment. Crickets alone need 13 times less feed than cows.
Nutritional
Packed full of protein, insects are nutritious and tasty and a great way to boost your intake of nutrients. As a nation, we Brits are obsessed with the next superfoods and health benefits of our food, dried insects are set to be the next big thing in boosting protein in our diet.
