Elaine “Foodbod” Boddy presents episode eleven of the Foodbod Pod in which she and David Treadway meet the founders of Yum Bug, the start-up company that is on a mission to change our perceptions about eating crickets and other insects. Leo Taylor and Aaron Thomas explain that insects have long been a staple part of people’s diets – more than 2 billion people in over 80% of the world’s countries eat them regularly. Moreover, they are a sustainable superfood that are better for the environment than beef, pork or chicken and can deliver superior nutritional and health benefits. They are also delicious to eat. Elaine joins Leo and Aaron in their development kitchen and helps them prepare a couple of different cricket based dishes and discusses Yum Bug’s plans.
And there’s a return visit from Sophie Carey, Bakery Development Manager at Matthews Cotswold Flour as she prepares ramen noodles. Any one for a cricket and noodle stir fry?
Plus there’s more top tips, food and home cooking ideas.
