iintshulube ezomisiweyo

Imarike yentshulube yokutya kulindeleke ukuba ikhule emva kokuba iManyano yaseYurophu igwebe ukuba iintshulube zingatyiwa. Izinambuzane kukutya okuthandwayo kumazwe amaninzi, ngoko ngaba abantu baseYurophu baya kukwazi ukumelana nesicaphucaphu?
Kancinci… ke, umgubo omncinci. Yomile (kuba yomile), i-crunchy encinci, ayikhanyi kakhulu kwincasa, ayimnandi kwaye ayimnandi. Ityuwa inokunceda, okanye itshilisi, ikalika – nantoni na ukuyinika ubushushu obuncinane. Ukuba nditya kakhulu, ndihlala ndisela utywala ukuze ndincede ekucoleni.
Nditya iintshulube. Intshulube yintshulube eyomisiweyo, imibungu yeMealworm molitor beetle. Ngoba? Kuba zinezondlo, zenziwe ikakhulu yiprotheyini, amafutha kunye nefayibha. Ngenxa yeengenelo zazo zemekobume nezoqoqosho, zifuna ukutya okuncinane kwaye zivelise inkunkuma encinane kunye nekharbon diokside kuneminye imithombo yeprotini yezilwanyana. Kwaye i-European Food Safety Authority (Efsa) isandula ukubhengeza ukuba ikhuselekile ekutyeni.
Enyanisweni, sele sinezinye zazo - isikhwama esikhulu. Siyazikhupha siziphakele iintaka. URobin Batman uyabathanda ngakumbi.
Akukho nto ijikayo kwinto yokuba zikhangeleka njengeempethu, nangona kunjalo, kuba zizimpethu, kwaye oku kukulinga etyholweni ngaphezu kokutya. Ndiye ndacinga ukuba mhlawumbi ukuwafaka kwitshokholethi enyibilikisiweyo kuya kubafihla...
Ngoku zikhangeleka njengeempethu ezifakwe kwitshokolethi, kodwa noko incasa njengetshokolethi. Kukho kancinci ukuthungwa, akufani neziqhamo kunye namandongomane. Kulapho ndabona ileyibhile ethi “Ayisetyenziswa ngabantu” kwi mealworms.
Iintshulube ezomileyo ziintshulube ezomisiweyo, kwaye ukuba bebengamenzanga nto uBatman omncinci, ngaba ngebange bangandibulala? Kungcono ukhuseleke kunokuba uxolo, nangona kunjalo, ndiye ndayalela ezinye iintshulube ezilungele ukutyiwa ngabantu kwi-Intanethi ukusuka kwiCrunchy Critters. Iipakethi ezimbini ze-10g zeentshulube zokutya zibiza i-£ 4.98 (okanye i-£ 249 ngekhilo), ngelixa isiqingatha sekhilo yeentshulube zokutya, esasizondla kwiintaka, zibiza i-£ 13.99.
Inkqubo yokuzala ibandakanya ukwahlula amaqanda kubantu abadala abakhwelayo kwaye emva koko ukondla iinkozo zombungu ezifana ne-oats okanye ingqolowa yengqolowa kunye nemifuno. Xa zikhulu ngokwaneleyo, zihlambulule, uthele amanzi abilayo phezu kwazo kwaye uzibeke kwi-oven ukuze zome. Okanye ungazakhela eyakho ifama yeentshulube kwaye ubatyise ioats kunye nemifuno kwisingxobo seplastiki esinedrowa. Kukho iividiyo kuYouTube ezibonisa indlela yokwenza oku; ngubani ongafuni ukwakha umzi-mveliso wobungu omncinci onemigangatho emininzi ekhayeni lakhe?
Nokuba yeyiphi na imeko, uluvo lwe-European Food Safety Authority, ekulindeleke ukuba yamkelwe kwi-EU iphela kwaye kungekudala ibone iingxowa zeentshulube zokutya kunye nomgubo weentshulube zivela kwiishelufa zevenkile enkulu kwilizwekazi liphela, zisisiphumo senkampani yaseFransi, i-Agronutris. Isigqibo silandela isigqibo seGunya loKhuseleko loKutya laseYurophu malunga nesicelo esivela kwinkampani yokutya isinambuzane. Ukhetho oluninzi lokutya kwezinambuzane kungokunje luphantsi kwengqwalasela, kubandakanywa amaqakamba, iinkumbi kunye nemisundululu emincinci yokutya (ekwabizwa ngokuba ngamaqongqothwane amancinci).
Kwakusele kusemthethweni ukuthengisa inambuzane njengokutya kubantu base-UK nangona sasiseyinxalenye ye-EU - iCrunchy Critters inikezela ngezinambuzane ukususela kwi-2011 - kodwa isigwebo se-EFSA siphelisa iminyaka yokungazinzi kwilizwekazi, kwaye kulindeleke ukuba ukomelela okukhulu kwimarike yeentshulube.
UWolfgang Gelbmann, usosayensi ophezulu kwisebe lezondlo kwi-European Food Safety Authority, uchaza imibuzo emibini i-arhente ebuza xa iphonononga ukutya okutsha. “Okokuqala, ngaba ikhuselekile? Okwesibini, ukuba kungeniswa ekudleni kwethu, ngaba kuya kuba nefuthe elibi ekudleni kwabathengi baseYurophu? Imithetho emitsha yokutya ayifuni ukuba iimveliso zitsha zibe sempilweni - azenzelwanga ukuphucula impilo yezidlo zabathengi baseYurophu - kodwa akufuneki zibe mbi ngakumbi kunoko sele sikutyile. "
Nangona ingelulo uxanduva lwe-EFSA ukuvavanya ixabiso lesondlo okanye izibonelelo zoqoqosho kunye nokusingqongileyo zemibungu yokutya, uGelbman uthe kuya kuxhomekeka kwindlela eziveliswa ngayo iintshulube. “Xa uvelisa kakhulu, kokukhona usezantsi ixabiso. Kuxhomekeke kakhulu kwisondlo esondla izilwanyana, kunye namandla namanzi.
Izinambuzane azikhuphi nje ikharbon diokside encinci kunemfuyo yemveli, zifuna amanzi amancinci nomhlaba kwaye zisebenza kakuhle ekuguquleni ukutya kube yiprotheyini. UMbutho Wokutya Nezolimo weZizwe Ezimanyeneyo unikela ingxelo yokuba iiqakamba, ngokomzekelo, zifuna kuphela iikhilogram ezi-2 zesondlo kwikhilogram enye yobunzima bomzimba obufunyenweyo.
UGelbman akaphikisani nomxholo weprotheyini yeentshulube zokutya, kodwa uthi ayikho phezulu kwiprotheyini njengenyama, ubisi okanye amaqanda, “ifana neeproteni zezityalo ezikumgangatho ophezulu njengecanola okanye iimbotyi zesoya.”
U-Leo Taylor, umseki wase-UK-based Bug, ukholelwa ngokuqinileyo kwiinzuzo zokutya izinambuzane. Inkampani iceba ukuthengisa iikiti zokutya kwezinambuzane - izidlo ezikhasayo, ezilungele ukutyiwa. “Ukukhulisa iintshulube zokutya kunokuba nzima kunokukhulisa imfuyo eqhelekileyo,” utshilo uTaylor. Unokubatyisa iziqhamo nemifuno.
Ngoko, ngaba izinambuzane zinencasa ngokwenene? “Kuxhomekeke kwindlela ozipheka ngayo. Sicinga ukuba zinencasa, yaye ayisithi sodwa abacinga loo nto. Amashumi asibhozo eepesenti abantu behlabathi batya izinambuzane ngandlel’ ithile – ngaphezu kwe-2 yeebhiliyoni zabantu – kwaye asikokuba zikulungele ukutyiwa, kungenxa yokuba zinencasa. Ndingu-half-Thai, ndakhulela kuMzantsi-mpuma weAsia, kwaye ndandisitya izinambuzane ndisengumntwana.”
Uneresiphi emnandi yesuphu yethanga yaseThai eneentshulube zokutya ukuba izonwabele xa iintshulube zam zilungele ukutyiwa ngabantu. “Le suphu inentliziyo kwaye imnandi ngeli xesha lonyaka,” utshilo. Ivakala kakhulu; Ndicinga nje ukuba usapho lwam luzovuma na.
U-Giovanni Sogari, umphandi wentlalo kunye nokuziphatha kwabathengi kwiYunivesithi yaseParma opapashe incwadi malunga nezinambuzane ezidliwayo, uthi owona mqobo mkhulu yinto enyanyekayo. “Izinambuzane ziye zatyiwa kulo lonke ihlabathi ukususela oko kwabakho abantu; ngoku kukho iindidi ezingama-2,000 zezinambuzane ezithathwa njengezinokutyiwa. Kukho into eyonyanyekayo. Asifuni kuzitya kuba singazijongi njengokutya.”
USogari uthe uphando lubonisa ukuba ukhe wadibana nezinambuzane ezityiwayo ngelixa useholideyini phesheya, kunokwenzeka ukuba uzame kwakhona. Ngaphezu koko, abantu abakumazwe akuMntla Yurophu kunokwenzeka ukuba bamkele izinambuzane kunabo bakumazwe eMeditera. Ubudala bukwabalulekile: Abantu abadala abafane bazame. “Ukuba abantu abancinci baqala ukuyithanda, intengiso iya kukhula,” utshilo. Waphawula ukuba i-sushi ikhula ngokuthandwa; ukuba intlanzi eluhlaza, i-caviar kunye ne-seaweed ingayenza, "ngubani owaziyo, mhlawumbi izinambuzane ziyakwazi."
Uthi: “Ukuba ndikubonisa umfanekiso kanomadudwane okanye welobster okanye wenye i<em>crustacean, azihlukanga kangako. Kodwa ukondla abantu kuselula ukuba izinambuzane azibonakali. I-Mealworms inokuguqulwa ibe ngumgubo, i-pasta, iimuffins, i-burgers, i-smoothies. Ndiyazibuza ukuba mandiqale ngeminye yemibungu engabonakaliyo;
Ezi ziintshulube zokutya, nangona kunjalo, zithengwe ngokutsha kwi-intanethi ukuze zisetyenziswe ngabantu. Ewe, zomiswa kwi-Intanethi kwaye zaziswa emnyango wam. Kufana nembewu yeentaka. Incasa yayifana, oko kuthetha ukuba ayilunganga kangako. Kude kube ngoku. Kodwa ndiza kwenza iSoup kaLeo Taylor's Butternut Squash kunye nabo, elitswele, ikonofile, umgubo omncinci wekhari eluhlaza, ubisi lwekhokhonathi, umhluzi, isosi yentlanzi encinci, kunye nekalika. Isiqingatha seentshulube zomgubo ndazosa e-oven nge-curry paste encinane ebomvu yaye, ekubeni sasingenaso isinongo saseThai, ndazipheka ngesuphu, yaye ezinye ndazifefa ngekoriyanda kunye netshilisi.
Ubusazi? Oku kulungile kakhulu. Imuncu kakhulu. Awuyi kuyazi into eyenzekayo kwisuphu, kodwa cinga ngayo yonke iprotheni eyongezelelweyo emangalisayo. Kwaye ukuhlobisa kunika i-crunch encinci kwaye yongeza into entsha. Ndicinga ukuba kwixesha elizayo ndiza kusebenzisa ikhokhonathi encinci… ukuba kukho ixesha elizayo. Masibone. Isidlo sangokuhlwa!
“Yhu!” batsho abantwana abaneminyaka emithandathu nesibhozo. “Bah!” “Yintoni…” “Akunjalo! Kukho worse. Izidubedube, umsindo, ukukhala, nezisu ezingenanto. Aba bafana bancinci mhlawumbi bakhulu kakhulu kwiinyawo zabo. Mhlawumbi ndingenza ngathi bangama-shrimp? Ilunge kakhulu. Kuthiwa bayakukhetha ukutya – nokuba intlanzi ikhangeleka kakhulu njengentlanzi, abayikukutya. Kuya kufuneka siqale ngepasta okanye iihambhega okanye iimuffins, okanye sibe nepati eneenkcukacha ezininzi. . . Kuba i-Efsa Nokuba ikhuseleke kangakanani na, kubonakala ngathi usapho lwaseYurophu olungenamdla alukakulungelanga iintshulube zokutya.
