No, we’ve not gone mad – we’re just asking the question you might hear at restaurant­s in the very near future, as it’s predicted we might all have to start including insects as part of our natural diet. Stefan Gates, author of new book Insects: An Edible Guide, believes that the world can’t sustain our current level of meat consumptio­n – basically, we might run out of it. So, instead, he thinks we should get used to eating creatures like grasshoppe­rs, worms, moths and ants. Gates claims that earthworms taste ‘sugary’, midges are ‘slightly nutty’, and Colombian ants taste like ‘smoky bacon crisps’. While it’s something every contestant on I’m A Celebrity… inevitably has to try, would you be prepared to swap beef for bugs, or lamb for larvae?! Let us know! WHAT DO YOU THINK?
