2013 FAO book on edible insects

Including edible insects in our diets is a step forward we are doing through curiosity, tastings and the first contact with the products, the discovery of new surprising tastes, through the creativity of chefs and producers.

We are also doing this step through an improved scientific awareness about their nutritional properties, the reduced environmental impact when we rear them, about their safety as food.
