Interesting Insects
Many insects found in Chad, Africa are, in fact, edible, some you may even find in America like caterpillars and grubs. This is of high nutritional value for the people that inhabit the villiages. This leads to them digging through the dirt for bugs as if they were carrots or vegetables.
This Does Not Only Apply to Chad
In fact, many children around the world end up hungry each day. The estimated number of children who died in 2010 was 7.6 million, at least half due to poor nutrition, usually caused by lack of food due to poverty.
