We desperately need new and reliable food sources. We also need to start scaling back our carbon footprint and our effect on the environment. Daniella Martin offers entomophagy, the eating of insects, as the answer to both these apparently contradictory issues. What is more, she can also tell us how to cook and eat them. Producer Eric Schulze eats one on the air! Guest: Daniella Martin, host of the insect cooking/travel show "Girl Meets Bug," blogger for "Huffington Post," and author of “Edible: An Adventure into the World of Eating Insects and the Last Great Hope to Save the Planet”
