I know Andrew Zimmern is always a strong proponent of introducing bugs into the western diet, although coming from him of all people, you aren't instilled with confidence that the typical person could actually enjoy it.

He is right though, bugs have been a worldly food for ages and they're highly nutritious. I wonder how the issue of world hunger would change if we considered bugs food worldwide.

I do recall various kids eating ants back in elementary school. I don't remember eating any myself but I always heard they were kinda spicy. Back then it didn't seem so weird.
