الالتقاء بالخنافس هناك ملايين وملايين منهم وعددٌ أقلُ بكثير من بقيتنا مثل الثدييات والطيور والزواحف
فقد أكل البشر الحشرات قبل التاريخ، فالحشرات وسيلة ممكنة لتوفير إمدادات الغذاء المستدامة
لثمانية مليار شخص على سطح الكوكب بالرغم من أن الكثير يرفض هذه الفكرة.
وبالرغم من أننا نعتنا الحشرات بأنها العدو الأعظم للحضارة البشرية، وأنها تدمر المحاصيل وتنشر الأوبئة،
فالآن تكون لنا الحشرات بمثابة ملقحات رائعة للمحاصيل الغذائية، ومصدرًا محتملًا للإمدادات الغذائية التجارية،
فيستوحي كتاب أكل الخنافس الروايات الثقافية والبيئية والتطورية لاستكشاف ثقافة أكل الحشرات على نحو مرح وسهل الوصول إليه،
فاستخدم في ذلك المطاعم الراقية التي تقدم النمل الأسود كمقبلات مع سمك السلمون النيء وحانات باريس
وطوكيو الذين يقدمون اليرقات كوجبات خفيفة وصراصير الحقول التي أصبحت تجارة فائقة التكنولوجيا
