    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.

    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.

        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.

    Crickets are fine. Also just accidentally caught a fly in my throat the other day while cycling. That was less fine.

    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.

    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 blob-no-thoughts

    no because i am a proud american conservative patriot and when joe biden knocked on my door and said "hi i am joe biden i use he/they pronouns. you must eat the bug because i am stupid liberal" i told him "nuh uh" and then went back to reading the bible

        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
