    I was trained eating large grasshoppers or Locusts back in my country as a child, so its not surprising for me that some Americans eat these because i think its much more nutritious than most people think..

    I'm fine with trying it. You get a pound of edible protein with the smallest amount of resources. I'd prefer they'd be pulverized and added to something else, like mix 'em with corn meal and give me cricket hush puppies. Something like that.

    I ate grasshopper/cricket once, tasted like chicken and the chitin leaves an after-popcorn effect (stays stuck in the part between the gums and the teeth).
    But dehydrated ones don’t have that problem.
    Since then, I’m addict to them.

    Man! Those crickets look good! I've been fasting the last two days due to cancer. I"m fighting it through alternative means. It's not the point but I enjoy the weight loss as a bonus. I'm 70 pounds lighter. I'm stage for colon cancer and I bled out of my backside for about a year but it seems to have stopped about 3 weeks ago. I'm starting to think cancer isn't 'as deadly as they tell us. It's probably the chemo that's causing the body count.
