How Stuff Works Podcast

Give your ears a treat by listening to an entertaining and informative podcast about eating insects here or here!

The articles on the site are easy to follow because they break down the article into topic links. Here are a few interesting articles from HowStuffWorks.com:

Article: How Entomophagy Works
Video: Moth Snacks In Sydney

Article: Are figs really full of baby wasps?
Video: Wasp Cookies in Japan
Video: Exotic Food Festival

I've heard about the wasps in figs before, but never knew how it worked or if it was true. It was also interesting to hear that some vegetarians and vegans don't eat figs because of the possibility of insect content. Great, helpful visuals. Thanks HowStuffWorks!

Enjoy!
