Locust Swarms Cause Disaster, Don't Worry About Domestic Impact, This Animal Cannot Leave China
Beetles, commonly known as locusts, are pests to humans. When they appear in large groups, the sky turns dark and heavy, and wherever they go, crops cannot grow. This is true in China, where locusts have caused trouble since ancient times.
However, with the emergence of Chinese foodies, locust plagues have been reduced. Locusts are also insects that can be eaten and used for medicine, with high nutritional value and rich in protein and vitamins, which can help warm the stomach, relieve food stagnation, dispel dampness and stop coughing. Therefore, dishes like fried locusts, drunken locusts, pan-fried locusts and spicy locusts are all highly regarded by foodies. It can be said that Chinese foodies have played a crucial role in resisting locust plagues.
Locust plagues have swept across the Middle East and South Asia, including Pakistan and India's Rajasthan and Gujarat states. Pakistan has already declared a national emergency to combat insect pests;
In addition, the fierce locust swarm has caused 370,000 hectares of farmland in India to be damaged, with economic losses exceeding hundreds of billions of rupees, and the locusts are still in motion.
Despite locusts rampant in South Asia, including India and Pakistan, there is no need to worry about them causing disaster in China, because the locust swarms cannot fly over the Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau, with high altitude and cold climates, which are the locusts' weaknesses and insurmountable barriers.
Most importantly, there are so many foodies in China, all staying at home and lacking delicious food. Roasting locusts would be a delicious dish. Locusts are plump and juicy, with a delicious and refreshing meat texture.
