Seeing the situation in the horn of Africa getting worse and worse, and seeing that the UN programs aren't as effective as widely believed to beat the famine I ask this question. What hinders us from giving the people in places like Sudan, Somalia etc. insects to eat? Of course the insects will be processed in a way that would make them look like powder or corn flakes.
Benefits:
1) Insects are high in proteins and vitamins
2) Cheap to breed

If the insects would be processed in a way that would make people not cringe at eating them then we might have a chance to solve this problem.
