  ABSTRACT: This study confirms that the majority of surveyed households (94%) consume insects in the city of Kananga, with the most commonly consumed insects being termites and crickets (93% each) according to their consumption frequency. The degree of appreciation, defined as the overall satisfaction level and acceptance of households regarding insect consumption, is rated as very good by most households. This high level of consumption is primarily explained by the availability of insects in the market as well as factors associated with their consumption, such as nutritional and cultural perceptions.
