This book provides a comprehensive look at the environmental impact, nutritional value, and biological aspects of incorporating insects into our diets.
The book begins by introducing entomophagy and sustainable food systems, then examines the biology and ecology of edible insects. It presents data comparing the environmental impact of insect farming to traditional livestock farming. You will learn about the methods for preparing insects for consumption, ensuring food safety, and the economic and social implications of insect consumption.
