2. I have eaten fried grasshoppers.
But it wasn't intentionally. Someone told me they were nuts.

5. I've eaten insects.
My husband raises mealworms and sometimes sautees them in butter. They taste nutty but with an airy crisp.

I've also eaten a live one, and wouldn't recommend it. The flavor just isn't them same. Blech.

8. I have eaten some.
We had some in high school science class.

But I tried one of those rolly polly bugs for the heck of it when I was younger.

11. I've done some weird things.
I use to rub poison ivy on myself to see if I was allergic. I guess I am not b/c I never got it.

10. Been there, done that
2 years in Thailand and you think I didn't try bug?

Water Beetle paste is the bomb, btw. Tastes like thick spice. Best thing to go with Chicken freshly grilled over bamboo.
