Description

I am fascinated with entomophagy as of late, and so it was great fun to
record this interview with Daniella Martin — author of Edible: An Adventure
Into the World of Eating Insects and the Last Great Hope to Save the Planet
 and the host of Girl Meets Bug, the insect cooking/travel show!

In the interview, we discuss:

* How Daniella became “the bug girl"
* The great resources in Daniella’s book
* Farming insects is not part of indigenous culture
* Insect identification when foraging
* How to avoid parasites when eating insects
* Legs, intestines and exoskeletons — oh my!
* Insect farming
* Cultural taboos surrounding entomophagy
* Tastes of different insects
* Vegans, vegetarians and eating insects
* Long chain fatty acids in insects
* Where is the “insect trend” going?
* The best starter insects
* Freezing vs cooking
