Non-fiction book review - Bugs for Breakfast

 

Bugs for Breakfast by Mary Boone

If you have any interest at all in the idea of eating insects, this book is an excellent resource. Boone lays out the environmental impact and nutritional content, as we would expect. But we also have chapters on  cultural and sociological influences. We explore the history of eating insects and why it is taboo in some cultures. There's even a hole section on vegans and insects. While the approach is fairly scholarly, it is quite readable.
