Afraid of Insects? Get over it! Entomophagy - eating insects as food - could contribute to sustainable development.

While I'm not into eating scorpions or tarantulas, I think grasshoppers & Locuses are rather crunchy

I think it is questionable whether I should eat scorpions as there are not many around here. I will stick to more readily available fodder. Now I have large numbers of snails in my garden. They need to be well washed in salt and vinegar to remove the slime, add some onion and herbs, cook well and you have a rather rubbery mouthful. The only flavour is the one you have added. They curry quite well, the sauce helps to wash them down.

Disgusto...I know that indigenous cultures world wide have been frying grubs and roasting spiders and grasshoppers for millennia, but....urk...no thank you.

My motto is eat nothing with a face! Live and let live! But I will not dictate to others what they may or may not eat. As Cate said...Thanx but no Thanx!

That was wonderful. The last line of the video is the best, and truest, statement I can think of for this.
