I'm not poor and I think crickets are tasty. I've had them fried I've had them as flour and I've had them on pizza. All they really need is their Impossible Burger moment to go viral because it's not the taste it's the idea of eating bugs that's unattractive here.
- YeGoblynQueenne 7y agoSorry. I eat crustaceans, which are basically sea insects. But, crickets? Yew. That said, I've seen some insects that are traditionally eaten. I seem to remember a kind of big, fat, white grub that is eaten in Mexico? Pictures I saw looked quite appetising. But, crickets? Yew. They're like cockroaches with little violins. No thanks.
- esarbe 7y agoWell, that's very similar to what most people thing about eating liver or lung or snails!
- ahje 7y agoI tried fried crickets at a local agricultural fair and I got to say they're not half bad as snacks. As an actual food source, well, I think we need to find other ways of eating them than just eating them fried with various spices. The day someone creates some kind of mince-meat substitute using insects will be the day insects end up on the menu of the general populace in developed countries. We do love our burgers! :)
