Is there anyone who grew up in a non-insecting-eating society who has acquired a taste for them? If so it'd be interesting to hear how they made the switch. I'm not talking about eating bugs just to know that they're like, but someone who actually enjoys them.
- tellarin 13y agoI guess I qualify. I usually make a point of trying new food, and insects were no exception. After trying some I really became fond of them. Of course, occasionally I try some new ones that turn out to have an awful taste. :) But the same applies to other food anyways.
- ImprovedSilence 13y agoI grew up in a big college town. Every year the university would have an "insect fair", where among other things, they had a big tent with all sorts of insect food. I remember eating millworm soup, some type of bugs in pasta, chocolate covered crickets, and probably some other stuff too. I thought it was pretty tasty, and now I consider myself very willing to eat insects as food every now and then or at a fancy restaurant. Then again, I also consider myself much more open to new experiences and tastes than most of my peers. So in short, yes, I enjoy them, but I don't eat them on a regular basis, or necessarily seek them out.
