EU Approves House Crickets And Mealworms For Human Consumption

The insect craze is gaining steam in the EU. Any food may now contain insect protein as long as it is labeled as such, e.g., "insect biscuits" or "insect paste". Technocrats partly reason that insects take fewer resources to grow than other forms of agriculture like row crops and animal husbandry. Technocracy, of course, is a resource based economic system that prizes efficiency.
