"FAO" RECOMENDATION: TO FIGHT HUNGER IN THE WORLD... BY EATING INSECTS

The whole information at FAO's site: http://www.fao.org/news/story/en/item/175922/icode/
after the International Conference on Forests for Food Security and Nutrition in Rome (13-15 May)

Forest products critical to fight hunger - including insect

... One major and readily available source of nutritious and protein-rich food that comes from forests are insects, according to a new study FAO launched at the forests for food security and nutrition conference. It is estimated that insects form part of the traditional diets of at least 2 billion people. Insect gathering and farming can offer employment and cash income, for now mostly at the household level but also potentially in industrial operations.

I confess I feel rather worried that an international organism like FAO, which intends to solve the most serious calamity in the world: HUNGER, accept and recomend such procedure. Nearly 1 billion people in the world are starving.

I think that for most sensitive people in our planet it is quite difficult to accept that "powerful" nations waste billions and billions dollars every year with weapons and wars, and that everyone must find normal that "feeble" nations feed on insects for not starving to death!!!
