Edible insects have been served as food in Thailand for a long time, often visible at street vendor stalls selling trays of fried insects, silkworm pupae, bamboo worms, locusts, beetles and crickets, with soy sauces and even seasonings.
Some people do not like their appearance, but insects are an undeniable protein source now used in the food and beverage sector, including pastries, candy, animal feed meal and pet food.
