The benefits of entomophagy and a few 'bug bites'
Global Field Program (GFP) graduate student Molly Biagi of River Grove, Illinois, was recently published on Bugible, an online guide into the world of bug eating. In the guest blog titled "We have a thing or two to learn from other countries when it comes to entomophagy" she writes that "eating insects isn’t a new concept ... and has deep historical roots across the world." And eating the right insects can provide nutrition and be good for the planet. "If you’re feeling adventurous, she invites readers to cook with critters themselves and offers a few "bug bite" recipes.
As a student in Miami's biology department, Biagi is earning a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Biology through Project Dragonfly's GFP while working as a laboratory biologist at the Illinois Institute of Technology.
