In many parts of the world, insects are actually a primary source of dietary nutrition. That's right - cultures in South America, Africa, and countries all over Asia enjoy (and yes, the do enjoy it) all kinds of creepy crawlies.Us Westerners on the other hand really aren't that into eating bugs.But let me ask you a question - if you knew eating cricket flour could...

Seriously, how many of you knew what quinoa was 10 years ago? My guess is a small percentage of you. For that matter, did you know how to pronounce it 10 years ago? It’s pronounced  KEEN – WAH, if you’re wondering. Quinoa’s basically become a superstar of the gluten-free movement because it’s a healthy, filling replacement for the grains people love so much.
