Do you find eating grasshoppers or other insects disgusting?
Based on several articles, including the one from PET Food Processing, the Canadian government generously invested $8.5 million in insect production.
I find it very disgusting. Moreover, how could you tell if the food or protein you consume contains grasshoppers or any insects?
Tons of manufacturers list down the ingredients on the label in a very confusing or deceptive way to prevent people from knowing the actual contents of a particular food item in the market. How I wish Canada would not allow this or at least have the food manufacturers make a clear label on the packaging which states that a food contains an insect as part of the ingredients.

The Canadian government's recent $8.5 million investment in insect production has sparked a debate on the consumption of insects like grasshoppers. While some people find it disgusting, others view it as a sustainable protein source.
ReplyDeleteOne concern is the transparency of food labeling, as some manufacturers use confusing or deceptive ingredient lists, making it difficult to determine if a product contains insects. It is crucial for consumers to be informed about what they are eating, and the Canadian government should encourage food manufacturers to clearly indicate the presence of insects in their products.
