Did you like it?
I have eaten lobster and crab so yes
Whomst among us hasn’t eaten a few ants as a kid? Suprisingly a little spicy
That kick is from the formic acid!
I wonder what Tarantula Hawks taste like
Probably neither tarantulas nor hawks if I had to guess.
Chapulines (fried crickets) in a taco in Mexico. They were pretty good, but almost every taco at that place was amazing, so maybe it’s more about the person making the tacos than the actual filling.
I’ve had roasted cricket tacos in Mexico before, and they’re fantastic. They have a great crunch.
Yes and yes and I would eat more if my wife didn’t threaten to leave me if I started farming them.
Edit: accepting tips from anyone who has experience hiding entomophagy from one’s spouse.
Which bug tho. What did it taste like?
I’ve had mealworms and cricket flour. If you toast them meal worms taste like sunflower seeds, cricket flour tastes like whatever you bake it into, there isn’t really any noticeable flavor.
Intentionally? No.
Statistically? Probably.An ant as kid was acidic as expected, as i remember
A girl I was in love with in the 3rd grade ate ants so naturally to be cool so did I.
Crickets are fine. Also just accidentally caught a fly in my throat the other day while cycling. That was less fine.
they were trying to push like cricket sausage & similar stuff where i’m from some years back. it wasn’t exactly horrible & i’m all for the concept but sadly the texture was a deal breaker for me. it was like v powdery & dry.
beyond that i was the class clown so naturally i’d devour whatever crawlies i could find around the yard
I’ve had some dried I-dunno-what with paprika at a bar and it was nice
one time when I was riding my bike a bug flew into my mouth and I swallowed it
I’ve had fried crickets and chips made from cricket flour so yes several.
That sounds yimyum actually
When I was a kid I had a bearded dragon and I dared my best friend to eat one of his mealworms and with out hesitation he grabbed one and ate it. He said it wasn’t bad
not on purpose, but I spend enough time outside that it’s inevitable. better they fly in my mouth than my nose though, that’s the worst
we stopped at a weird candy store on a road trip a few years ago and found a bunch of bug candy but didn’t try any
they also had a lot of bulk candies, from old fashioned stuff to jelly bellys, niche snacks from different parts of the country, and the largest variety of dried vegetation and flesh I’ve ever seen. it was horrifyingly fascinating.
When I was really young I was at someone else’s house, there were these tiny little bugs that crawled up the wall, and I just, for seemingly no reason other than curiosity, grabbed them and put them in my mouth. They started tasting bad after a while, kinda like charcoal, but for some reason I couldn’t stop, I just kept putting the bugs in my mouth.
