Bug bon appétit.
Scientists, nutritionists and food adventurers have long advocated for humans to consider insects as a sustainable food source, prompting NBC News Hallie Jackson to dine on a rare treat: The 17-year cicada.
Jackson noshed on cicada scampi at Thip Khao Restaurant in Washington, D.C., in footage aired Wednesday on Hallie Jackson Reports. Actually it s pretty good, Jackson told viewers. I sent a box of chocolate-covered cicadas to some family members.
Thip Khao chef Seng Luangrat said she is happy to share her cicada creation with customers.

TRUMP’S STILL BANNED FOR NOW: Facebook s ban on former President Trump’s account will continue following a decision issued by its independent Oversight Board on Wednesday. The Board found that, in maintaining an unfounded narrative of electoral fraud and persistent calls to action, Mr. Trump created an environment where a serious risk of violence was possible, the board wrote in a statement.
While the board did uphold the suspension, it also found that the indefinite suspension was not appropriate.

Wednesday, Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-NY) emphasized the importance of passing the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act to fight “systemic racism.”
While speaking with MSNBC’s “Hallie Jackson Reports,” Jones called for putting an end to the “Jim Crow relic known as the filibuster.”
“We must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act uncompromised,” Jones declared. “It is a significant stride forward in the area of getting racial justice in policing and ending systemic racism. It is not by any stretch a panacea, but it represents a watershed moment. And I’m happy to hear that Congresswoman Karen Bass and Senator Tim Scott are talking about how to move this forward in the Senate on a bipartisan basis. But make no mistake we should not be watering down the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act if we can pass it through a repeal or at least a reformation of that Jim Crow relic known as a filibuster in the United States Senate, OK.”
