Defne is awesome and sent this me this video: Insect Eating Promoted

There was actually a 3 day workshop in Chiang Mai, Thailand where international researchers and experts attended to discuss the use of insects in the human diet. The United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) experts say despite their appearance, they are highly nutritious and some may have the same amount of protein as meat and fish.

The video also touches on topics such as modernization and Western attitudes on eating insects.

The Chiang Mai french fries look good!
