Twelve Delicious Edible Insects

Human insect-eating is common in cultures in parts of the world, such as North, Central and South America; and Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Australia and New Zealand. Over 1,000 insects are known to be eaten in 80% of the world's nations. However, in some societies insect-eating is uncommon or even taboo.

In many cases people started eating insects out of necessity, but these days they've become a delicacy, as any entomophage (eater of insects) will tell you.
