Bugs became part of our dietary tradition, serving as both a staple and a delicacy.

[Why don't we eat bugs?] For centuries, people have consumed bugs,everything from beetles to caterpillars, locusts,grasshoppers, termites, and dragonflies.The practice even has a name:entomophagy.Early hunter-gatherers probably learned from animals that foraged for protein-rich insects and followed suit.As we evolved and bugs became part of our dietary tradition,they fulfilled the role of both staple food and delicacy.
