We were in a meeting when we received the email. A supermarket chain with 400 stores ordered thousands of our products! It was hard to hide our excitement as this was a big step for our company and the insect industry as a whole.

Are you looking for gift ideas? Food is always a good choice but it needs to be tasty! And it better be interesting too. How about food that is good for the planet and reduces animal suffering? Now, giving the future of food, that's cool! Let’s look at your options.
Roughly one third of all the food produced in the world for human consumption is wasted, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization. That is just not sustainable! Thankfully, insects are here to save our asses.
We want to limit the overall animal suffering in the world. Our suggestion is that people replace at least some portion of their protein coming from meat and eggs with protein coming from insects. Conventionally raised big animals are a huge problem and a source of suffering. Insects on the other hand do not suffer at all while being farmed. How is that possible?
Insect farming is sustainable and its environmental impact is negligible compared to the production of other foods. Check out the infographic below and learn how a diet change can make our planet better.

Que peut donc faire une personne qui veut réduire la maltraitance des animaux tout en profitant de tous les bienfaits nutritionnels des aliments d'origine animale ? La réponse se trouve dans le règne des insectes.
