"Edible offers a fascinating look into the world of entomophagy and how eating bugs may save the planet. Martin takes readers to the front lines of the next big trend in the global food movement. She argues that bugs have long been an important part of indigenous diets and cuisines around the world, and that insects are an efficient and sustainable food source. Daniella travels to Thailand where the government is subsidizing local farmers to raise crickets, meets with Dutch researchers who have received a $4 million euro grant to study the potential of insects as food, and introduces readers to world class chefs like Jose Andres who are already incorporating bugs into their elegant dishes. She profiles entomophagist pioneers like Monica Martinez, who is launching the first all-bug street food cart. Whether you love or hate them, Edible will radically change the way you think about the global food movement and, perhaps, persuade you that they're much more than a common pest."--… (plus d'informations)

Thoroughly enjoyable romp across the world tasting bugs of all types. A really convincing point about our ability to change diet and reduce our environmental impact. ( )

Super inspiring. I will certainly be making much more effort to eat more bugs. This book makes a really convincing argument for entomophagy. Not only would I recommend this book to my friends but would REALLY like it if they did. ( )

Enjoyed this book. The writer is engaging and opened the doors to additional reading on this subject. The read is fun and never boring. Eating insects worldwide (which we all do now in some form due to the FDA guidelines)in the near future could be the answer that will feed and add to our current food supply. When living in areas of the world where the food supply is lacking in nutritional values insects can certainly add to the table. Food is food and its only our discomfort with insects (we so called civilized society) which keeps our minds closed to this issue. I gave it four stars only because I would have enjoyed viewing a few pictures of her on her expeditions to the food stalls or farms trips to buy insects when visiting Mexico, Thailand and all the other counties she went. Highly recommend this book - its fun!

I must state that this is the first book I ever won and received from Goodreads. My review of this book in no way was affected by this and should this writer publish again - I would not hesitate to buy. ( )
