Bugs are very common food in Asian, African and South American cultures.
Edit: I also remember seeing some ant stuff in Mexico. And I’ve read about indigenous cultures in Australia and North America also having insects as part of their food. I’m sure if I look for it, I’ll find something on European cultures as well. Modern food is just a representation of food that got commercialized, but in reality human diet used to be much more varied than we are used to seeing now.
- ohdannyboy 3y agoI wasn't aware of that. Are they similar and eaten as a significant source of protein?
- darth_avocado 3y agoYes. There’s plenty of YouTube channels exploring this if you’re interested. https://youtu.be/nZ3Zc1DJOgY https://youtu.be/nZ3Zc1DJOgY
