What might you expect to find at an exhibition entitled, “Insects Au Gratin”.
 
Why yes, you guess correctly.
 
This exhibition details 3D food printing, but with a twist: the print material is a flour made from “dried insects combined with soft cheese.” Why would anyone do this? Because:
 
“Insects Au Gratin looks for new ways of consuming insects and debates the nutritive and environmental aspects of insects as human food.”
 
Ok. 
 
Are you ready for 3D printed 20mm insect protein cubes?
