Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #985 Eating Insects (Edible Insects- Different Version)
Instructions
Insects  have  been  an  important  part  of  the  human  diet  for  thousands  of  years.  So  why  has  insect  eating  died  out  in  the  developed  world?  Stuart  Hine,  an  entomologist  at  the  Natural  History  Museum  in  London,  says  it's  a  cultural  :  insects  are  seen  as  dirty'  and  as  carriers  of  disease.  Despite  this,  a  decade  ago,  insect  eating  seemed  to  be  making  a  ,  with  the  publication  of  a  number  of  insect  recipe  books.  Edible,  a  London-based  company,  supplies  products  such  as  chocolate-covered  ants  and  toasted  leafcutter  ants.  Perhaps  as  we  become    of  the  sentience  of  higher  animals,  insects  will  become  the  protein  of  choice  in  centuries  to  come.  On  6  April,  Hine  will  give  a  talk  on  edible  insects  at  London's  Natural  History  Museum  and  offer  some  unusual  snacks.
