Sure, Metin. I see where you're coming from but, as Hilmar said, if there aren't the resources, make do with what you've got. I don't think any of us is being flippant, nor lacking sympathy with their plight. And deep down, I don't think the UN is saying, a la Marie Antoinette, "let them eat cake". Like I said, I can't read the article to judge for myself.

Yeah, I'm sure that Africans would prefer burger and fries (and we DO eat a lot of that crap in UK too, Dean), but I was saying that they're more used to the concept of eating arthropods than we (and after Dean's message I've been put right off lobster! :-) )

>I couldn't find english version on BBC's site that articles. :)

>I'm angry, because UN advices hungry people ; "If you cannot find bread you can eat insects" . I think so this is a derisive view to hungry people. It is not about eating preferences.
- Whoever said that women are the weaker sex never tried to wrest the bedclothes off one in the middle of the night
- Worry is the interest you pay, in advance, for a loan that you may never need to take out.
