Should we eat insects? By Sophie



Why should we eat bugs?



Who eats bugs? Anyone? Actually, bug are very yum. It's so sad that many people think that there are slimy, good-for-nothing pests.Why can't people learn and make use of the delicacies? So I believe that people should start eating bugs. Anyway, it costs almost nothing.

Did you know that 80% of bugs can contain protein? They also contain fat, minerals, vitamins and fiber. Much healthier than meat especially that most edible insects have more mineral iron than beef. Yellow beetle larvae have lots of minerals and vitamins and also 50% is protein.

Secondly, bugs make a lot less greenhouse gases compared to cows so you can also save the earth while eating it. That's because cows release 70-120 kg of methane each year while bugs produce significantly less.

Many people don't realise it but bugs are actually quite yum. Did you know that people didn't eat lobsters but are now eaten quite a lot.Maybe that will happen with bugs with the changes happening on earth.

Bugs could actually be the solution to world hunger. They can live in any place and they hardly need anything to eat. They also need extremely less water.

So therefore, I think we should eat bugs because of my reasons. Meat really needs a lot and isn't really good. Bugs can help save the world. Now, we just need to start eating bugs.
