2018 Festival Event:
Exploring Edible Insects
THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT.
American culture embraces lobster and shrimp, but people in other parts of the world dine on these arthropod's land-based cousins too. Insects are delicious and nutritious staples, yet an outdated taboo makes us squirm at the thought of crunching cricket tacos or slurping silkworm soup. Cooking with these new textures and flavors can be fun and beneficial to local and global health. Curious about broadening your palette? Join us for a special storytime and some buggy treats at Little Shop of Stories! Parents, this is not a drop off event. We request parent accompaniment.
