RE: The Xtrodinary Papa-Pepper experience Part 1 - Eating Bugs
More bug eating! Any foragers from further north have any bug collecting wisdom? I believe that however you feel about bug eating this important knowledge to teach your whole family just in case we run into some form of starvation times.
I did not consider how this could be useful. Foraging for bugs... @openparadigm you are going to go far.
Thanks for the compliment, though to be fair I learned this from Jared Diamond in his book Collapse. In the book he analyses pacific islands and takes lessons from there successes and failures and uses them to look at the problems facing island earth. The lesson that applies here is that when starvation times came( and history shows this happens regularly) if the grandparents had gone through these times before then they would remember foods that while not usually desirable would still sustain life . This makes teaching my kids foraging not only fun but also something that might keep them alive someday.
I kind of want to sneak in and change a tag to #foraging
Delete the first tag and replace it and you will have effectively six tags and check out @foraging-trail
