RESUMO
Nos próximos anos, a população mundial irá aumentar substancialmente, o que trará uma série de desafios relativamente às necessidades alimentares crescentes, agravados pelos problemas associados às alterações climáticas. Como potencial solução global, a entomofagia (amplamente praticada em alguns países/regiões) tem ganho especial destaque nos últimos anos, embora a implementação nos países ocidentais seja limitada por questões culturais. Presentemente, a União Europeia regulamentou três espécies de insetos como novos alimentos permitindo a sua comercialização no espaço europeu. Os insetos são muito ricos em nutrientes essenciais e fáceis de criar (baixo consumo de água, alimento e emissão de gases), sendo excelentes alternativas nutricionais para alimentação humana. Adicionalmente, os insetos têm propriedades benéficas para a saúde humana (exemplo: anti-hipertensivas). Deste modo, a divulgação dos benefícios para a saúde e para o planeta associados ao seu consumo deve ser transmitida de forma clara ao consumidor de forma a promover a sua aceitação como alimento.
