A Dunedin food scientist is determined to change the "yuck" factor of eating insects.
Dr Dominic Agyei has loved all the insects he has tasted.
"Insects are actually tasty. And what better way to demonstrate this than by adding insect ingredients to ice cream - a dessert treat that is consumed by people of all ages and backgrounds. The aim is not to trick people into eating insects but to give them a treat doing so," he said.
