    "Tarantulas, grasshoppers, are scorpions are just the beginning of insects you can eat."

    I hate to always nit-pick, but shouldn't that be "...and scorpions..."?

    DrJones, you is right. I are a lousy editor. Corrected.

    Fried/roasted crickets are actually quite good.

    Scorpions and tarantulas aren't insects, btw.

    I have tried the fried Silkworm Pupae several times and it 's not bad. Very delicious, infact.

    I've always wanted to try eating bugs. I think I had chocolate covered ants once, but that doesn't really count. (99% chocolate)
