3. Caterpillars
Mopane caterpillars are the larval stage of the emperor moth and are very popular in the southern part of Africa. In fact, harvesting these caterpillars is a multi-million dollar business in places where women and children usually do the work of harvesting. These highly nutritious insects are generally boiled in salt water and dried in the sun. They can last for three months without refrigeration and contain 31 milligrams of iron per 100 grams. They also include sodium, potassium, phosphorous, zinc, magnesium, copper, zinc and manganese.
