Jenna Jadin, entomologist and author of the 2004 recipe book "Cicadalicious," is pictured here chopping tomatoes in the kitchen during her trip to Kratie, Cambolia in 2019 to study human consumption of insects as food. Periodical cicadas are expected to emerge this spring, giving chefs and amateur cooks a chance to experiment in the kitchen.
Two people are pictured here eating insects during a night market in Kratie, Cambodia in 2019, where Dr. Jenna Jadin visited to study human consumption of insects as food. Periodical cicadas are expected to emerge this spring, giving chefs and amateur cooks a chance to experiment in the kitchen. Jadin is an advocate for using insects as a high-protein food source.
Silk worms are pictured here at a night market during Jenna Jadin's trip to Kratie, Cambodia in 2019 to study human consumption of insects as food. Entomophagy, or the intentional consumption of insects as food, remains rare in the U.S., but with the explosion of periodical cicadas this spring, those particular insects could be on the menu in many restaurants in the Midwest and southeastern states for a limited time.
This year, Brood XIX and Brood XIII will emerge for the first time together in 221 years. Pictured here is the periodical cicada Brood VII emerging in 2018 in Onondaga County, New York.
