Chapulines are roasted grasshoppers popular in southern Mexico and they are very high in Omega-3, B12 and pre-biotic fiber.

Edible insects are nutritional powerhouses that we revile due to unwarranted cultural fears.

The only reason we do not eat insects, like much of the rest of the world does, is that we look at insects as the food of the poor. A racist view passed on for generations.

It's a viewpoint that shames people worldwide into rejecting traditional foods.

Insects are a sustainable food source available to almost anyone anywhere.

Once we begin to adopt them, as Europe is today, our acceptance will benefit the world.
