Carrots with crickets printed in 3D? Here’s a new dish developed by Singapore scientists
Scientists have long been looking for alternatives to meat or other natural sources of protein. Researchers in Singapore have just developed a new recipe. It’s carrots with crickets printed using 3D technology.
Sir David Attenborough, the world-famous biologist and popularizer of natural knowledge, said in a documentary last year:
“We need to change our diet. The planet cannot sustain billions of carnivores.”
According to UN figures, as early as this November the world population will exceed 8 billion people, and by the middle of the 21st century there will be nearly 10 billion people.
