The increasing demand for alternative protein sources worldwide had led the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to promote the potential of using insects both for feed and food, establishing a program called ?Edible Insects.? Although several social, environmental, and nutritional benefits of the use of insects in the human diet have been identified, the majority of the population in Western countries rejects the idea of adopting insects as food, predominantly for cultural reasons. Nevertheless, international interest in promoting the consumption of insects has grown significantly, mainly in North America and Europe. This trend is mostly due to increasing attention and involvement from the scientific network and the food and feed industries, as well as governments and their constituents. The book explores the current state of entomophagy and identifies knowledge gaps to inform primary research institutions, students, members of the private sector, and policymakers to better plan, develop, and implement future research studies on edible insects as a sustainable source of food. The case studies and issues presented in this book cover highly up-to-date topics such as aspects of safety and allergies for human consumption, final meat quality of animals fed with insects, the legislative framework for the commercialization of this novel food, and other relevant issues. 606 $aEntomology 606 $aFood?Biotechnology 606 $aAgricultural economics 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aNutrition    606 $aEntomology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25090 606 $aFood Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C15001 606 $aAgricultural Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W47000 606 $aFood Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23040 606 $aNutrition$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C18000 615 0$aEntomology. 615 0$aFood?Biotechnology. 615 0$aAgricultural economics. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aNutrition   . 615 14$aEntomology. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aAgricultural Economics. 615 24$aFood Microbiology. 615 24$aNutrition. 676 $a641.3 676 $a641.3 702 $aSogari$b Giovanni$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMora$b Cristina$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMenozzi$b Davide$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349447303321 996 $aEdible Insects in the Food Sector$92115711 997 $aUNINA
