They Eat It All In Laos - Southeast Asia Travel Blog

They Eat It All In Laos - Southeast Asia Travel Blog | The Asian Food Gazette. | Scoop.it
There are so many exotic and weird foods in Laos. I could seriously go on and on for days on the foods or dishes you can find throughout this country. Lao people eat anything and everything- Everything.
Michael Mazo's curator insight, December 15, 2014 3:03 PM

Considering the declining economy in Laos, people's wages are not what they should be to feed themselves or their families. With a need for food on the table, people in Laos began eating insects which is actually not a bad idea considering they have a larger mass to nutrition ratio than most foods we eat today. In addition to being nutritious, some insects have been known to work as a medicine to certain illnesses. Whether alive, dead or deep fried; insects have been a growing trend in order to cope with food demand all across the globe.
