Okay, this is it. I'm gonna start this blog. I've only thought about it for a few days but I'm jumping the gun (maybe) and just starting it.
This blog is going to be mostly about my adventures with insect cuisine, but will also cover some other food aspects. It might include some normal boring fare as well, depending on my mood.
I'm totally new to but absolutely fascinated by entomophagy. Mostly because I'm terrified of insects and I think maybe if I eat them, some of my fear will go away. Like some of my irrational fear of heights went away when I started climbing. I'm also really interested in entomophagy, as it's a far more sustainable means of acquiring protein and nutrients compared to eating meat from cows and other pasture-raised animals that emit insane amounts of greenhouse gasses and use up vital resources like land, water, and food. I know, becoming fully vegetarian would probably be the all encompassing answer, but maybe not! Insects use far less space and resources and have a lot more grams of protein per gram of flesh than meat. I'm not stating data here as I haven't researched the topic enough but have added links below that might be of interest.
皆様こんにちは。私のブログへようこそ。このブログではおもに虫食いに関する事事を書くつもりです。虫がかなり恐い私にとって昆虫食はとても興味深い物です。最近の予想では３０−５０年後世界の人口は百十億を漉すと言うそうです。この未来の世界では土地も水もその分少なくなってます。そんな世界で今のように牛、鳥、魚を育てると言うのはかなり無理になっていくと思います。
昆虫は牛肉よりタンパク質とビタミンがあるし、土地も水も餌もあまりいりません。しかも、餌になる物は普通廃品になる物をあたえられるので、その分生ゴミが少なくなるかもしれません。
このブログでは私の昆虫食の旅を記録するつもりです。日本語はかなり下手なので読むのが大変かもしれませんが、すみません。時々時間がないので英語だけで書くかもしれませんけど、もし分からない所があれば質問して下さい。
