Some visionaries hope that insects will play a big
role in future human diets. Insects are nutritious,
being packed with protein. Unlike hot-blooded
mammals and birds, which use a lot of energy to
keep themselves warm, they are efficient
converters of food into body mass. And in some
parts of the world they are, indeed, eaten already.
Well, maybe. But it will take some serious marketing
to persuade consumers, in the West at least, that
fricasseed locusts or termite burgers are the yummy
must-haves of 21st-century cuisine.
Which sentence below best summarizes the text?

## Alternativas

- **B)** Because some visionaries insist insects are musthaves, Westerners will have to get used to eating them sooner than they think.
- **C)** Insects have proven to be nutritious sources of food because of the amount of carbohydrates they are able to provide.
- **D)** Although insects have already become part of many people’s diets, they still haven’t been accepted by medical doctors in developed countries.
- **E)** Although insects are yummy solutions for the modern cuisine, people still have to find out about their nutritious qualities.

## Resposta correta
