225: Checkpoint Nation

United Nations Insect Consumption Initiative

The United Nations is promoting the consumption of insects as a sustainable alternative to meat to combat global warming and famine. The hosts discuss the commercialization of "edible" insects like toasted ants and chocolate-coated grasshoppers. They reference the book "Unmentionable Cuisine" to provide historical context on unconventional food sources during times of crisis.
