Has anyone else ever eaten crickets before

Question

My brother bought some the other day at the candy store in our mall. They were coated with salt and vinegar. He has some pretty unusual tastes when it comes to snacks. But when i tried one they actually weren't that bad. Just a REALLY different kind of snack!

Answer 1

I am a former chef and worked in Southeast Asia, and they are a common snack in those countries, and are flavoured with many different things from Chili's or soy sauce, even a reddish glaze the one they used for Chinese BBQ pork.

They even have something similar in Mexico, I have tried many, crickets, grasshoppers, water bug, mealworms, scorpions, and small larvae from tree moths.

Answer 2

I've never eaten a cricket before.  I've heard of chocolate covered ones, putting them in eggs plus salt and vinegar.  sound's very interesting!
