Book summary
The authors traveled to 13 countries to taste insects. The book talks about eating insects and how to harvest them. The animals in the book include insects like jumil stinkbugs, witchetty grub, and silkworms, but also arachnids (not insects) like Theraphosa blondi (a bird-eating tarantula). Faith recommends that people who are new to insect eating start with insects that crisp up well when roasted and avoiding things like worms, which are too chewy, or cicadas, which are too fleshy and tough.[1]
