To accommodate this number, current food production will need to almost double. Land is scarce and expanding the area devoted to farming is rarely a viable or sustainable option. Oceans are overfished and climate change and related water shortages could have profound implications for food production. To meet the food and nutrition challenges of today – there are nearly 1 billion chronically hungry people worldwide – and tomorrow, what we eat and how we produce it needs to be re-evaluated. Inefficiencies need to be rectified and food waste reduced. We need to find new ways of growing food. Read more: newsfeed.time.com...

As cold-blooded creatures they are “very efficient” in converting feed to protein, needing 12 times less feed than cattle in order to produce the same amount. They also feed on human and animal waste, and can transform this into protein. (source) This suggestion that everyday people be reduced to consuming insects that are fed excrement is part of the hijacked green movement, cloaked under the guise of “sustainable development”. World leaders and fake environmental groups are doctoring science and conveying propaganda through tools like the media and the school systems.
Do you think that Bill and Melinda Gates will be sending their housekeeper to the market to pick up a basket of fresh caterpillars for dinner? Will baked beetles be on the menu at the Rothschild estate? Will the Obama children have bug salad sandwiches in their lunch boxes when they go to school?
If the United Nations was truly concerned about the well-being and health of the hungry people of the world, wouldn’t they be teaching sustainable farming methods? Wouldn’t they be promoting urban gardening, micro-livestock, and handing out heirloom seed packets? Wouldn’t they be cracking down on companies like Monsanto and Dow, who are poisoning much of the farmland of the world with their toxic seeds and pesticides? This is pure Agenda 21 “resource management” and the purpose is to remove more resources from the hands of the poor and reallocate them to the wealthy.
Have you ever read about a survival scenario where a kidnapping victim, a forgotten prisoner, or lost hiker was forced to choke down insects in order to survive? Did it sound repulsive? Demeaning? Even sub-human? Well, welcome your life if the United Nations has anything to do with it. Our “friends” - See more at: www.theorganicprepper.ca...

I've never had an issue with eating bugs.
However, the fact that the UN has suggested we eat them is the part that turns my stomach. I'm sure they'll soon use their usual psychological warfare techniques to make everyone believe that eating bugs is "cool" and trendy. I'm sure they'll have photos of models eating insects while wearing Tommy Hilfiger. Of course, butterflies will be off the menu. They can't have us eating their universal symbol for mind control and fractured personalities, right? Alas, I digress.

And there it is...Thank you.
I didn't reply to a few other posters because I couldn't understand their willingness to accept this as a "Good Thing".
Thanks for a voice of reason.
Peace

One survival tip I've read says to toast the bugs then mash them into powder. Then you add the powder to soups and stews for extra protein.

Always remember, there's quite a number of people feeling absolutely disgusted at the sight of someone eating pork, beef or anything alike.
