FDA in a tweet Wednesday warned that people allergic to seafood should not eat cicadas, as they "share a family relation to shrimp and lobsters," in today's bite-sized hospital and health industry news from the District of Columbia, Indiana, and New Mexico.

• District of Columbia: FDA in a tweet Wednesday warned that people allergic to seafood should not eat cicadas, as they "share a family relation to shrimp and lobsters." Since the cicadas arrived on the East Coast in mid-May, some chefs and home cooks have experimented with recipes that include the edible insects, such as wrapping them in rice or putting them in tacos, the Washington Post reports. "If you're allergic to one, there's a chance you can be allergic to both [cicadas and shellfish]," Jerome Grant, an etymology professor at the University of Tennessee's Institute of Agriculture, said, adding, "It's better to be safe" (Azad, CNN, 6/2; Heil, Washington Post, 6/2).
