  • Hundreds of tiny nymphs (immature insects), Cystococcus echiniformis, fall out from the exposed home of their mother inside a gall in a bloodwood tree; the tiny insects are eaten alive by the hundreds in one ("nutty tasting") mouthful, north of Alice Springs, Central Australia.

  • Pig and chicken intestines, pig blood, and fatty pork are common beloved street foods in Manila, Philippines. Isaw (pig and chicken small-intestine barbecue) is a national favorite, as is taba (pieces of pork fat skewered onto a stick and deep-fried). Dugo is curdled and congealed pig blood, cut into chunks, skewered, and then grilled. Cow blood is too strong tasting to use, say the street vendors. Adidas, named after the running shoe, is barbecued chicken feet. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.)

  • A teen-age boy snacking on dried, salted mopane worms near Lanseria, South Africa. Eaten dry the worms are hard, crispy, and woody tasting. The worms are so popular in South Africa that they have been over-harvested and are now only abundant in neighboring Botswana. "Mopane" refers to the mopane tree, which the caterpillar eats. Dried mopane worms have three times the protein content of beef and can be stored for many months. Image from the book project Man Eating Bugs: The Art and Science of Eating Insects.
