Represented @NACIA_org at the @USDA #2018FoodBill listening session. Lots of good ideas coming from farmers and it looked like the USDA staff was listening.

Just finished an interview with @davidzuring at @WaduduBeilen about the state of insect agriculture, the challenges, the opportunities, and the future. Every time I talk about these things I get excited at all the possibilities.

Thanks to @atlasobscura for this wonderful piece on #brooklynbugs #bugsgiving, hosted by @thebugchef and Joseph Yoon. Read on to see what they thought about all the ento-cuisine we used to replace the traditional, colonial theme of Thanksgiving. https://t.co/0ogwIsbP9F

Thank you for such an honest article on trying #insectcuisine for the first time, your hesitance, revelations, the taste profiles, and your excitement to eat insects again. (And for the nod in the article.) @Brooklynbugs17 #Bugsgiving @thebugchef @TheDaveGuy
