eating insects?

[great lover]

do you see anything wrong with it? i mean would insect meat provide the same level of nutrition as a chicken or beef?

what insect would you prefer? something like a cockroach kebab or a fried grasshopper?

The only thing wrong with it is that i consider them as insects and not food, whereas many places in the world would consider them as food.
I still couldn't eat them..yick.

I'd have to be hungry. I hear woodlice taste like shrimp.

I do.... but I'm not sure I'd want to eat woodlice.

A Handful Of Crickets Contains The Same Amount Of Protein As A 12oz Steak!

I'm All About The Taste. If It Tastes Good I'll Eat It.

Of a VERY limited variety. Nothing of the sort that a former member of the SAS would have undergone.

woodlice are technically crustations like shrimp. Apparently.

I thought Grylls was supposed to be a phoney?

Insects aren't as bad as people make out. It's pretty much tasteless

Like most meat. A book on wilderness survival, promotes eating insects.

I'd recommend cooking them first

 

[bronzeage]

We eat insects all the time. We just can't see them.

 

[John Doe]

I do...

That's hot.

Don't confuse us with facts.

Many years ago, my girlfriend and I had just moved into a new apartment. She invited her sister and sister's boyfriend for lunch.

Girlfriend had a great hamburger recipe that used seasoned bread crumbs. They were delicious. She set the table and when we all sat down, she passed on the hamburger, saying she it was too much meat for her. We all enjoyed the meal.

After our guests left, she broke down and cried. When she dumped the breadcrumbs into the bowl and started mixing it into the hamburger, she noticed some of it was moving. Weevils had hatched out in the breadcrumbs. There was no more hambuger and no more breadcrumbs, so wth no plan B, she kept mixing and put the patties on the broiler.

I guess you can make three groups, those who will eat insects, those who want, and those who want, but will feed them to other people.

Four. Those who will eat them and feed them to other people.

Oh yeah, I forgot to vote. Famine is unlikely for me, but I'd eat grubs and grasshoppers and such in other situations too. Like if I couldn't manage to kill a mammal. Also unlikely.

I worked with an old boy who would eat live crickets and grasshoppers like they were candy. It made me sick to hear the crunch when he bit into em'.
