I've never tried whole bugs, only protein bars. I feel like the texture of exoskeleton would be the worst part?
It's just crispy when cooked properly. Do you like chips? French fries? Crispy pork? You'll be at home!
Fried and de-legged they taste like sunflower seed kernels, they're really inoffensive. The worst part is thinking about what they are.
That sounds alright. De-legged makes sense.
A friend of mine in Zambia taught me how to fry caterpillars. They are like squishy french fries. They are fine. They pair well with chibuku.
I had dried cricket when my aunt hosted this insane trivia game as one of the “rewards” for guessing incorrectly, it actually wasn’t that bad, didn’t really taste like anything, just a standard salty burnt taste or a weird potato chip
Not something I’m gonna go out and find to eat but it wasn’t bad
Your first sentence says, “it actually was that bad,” but your second sentence says, “but it wasn’t that bad” so I’m going to assume you meant the latter.
Oh yeah I meant to say wasnt, oops
Worse than a quest bar??
I've only ever had one worse protein bar: the original powerbar. Made in Idaho back in the nineties, they were a uniformly brown (regardless of flavor), chewy, sticky, oddly grain flavored abomination. The OG version came in gold foil wrappers with black text, like it was out of a fancy MRE. They were awful.
I imagine they would have the same eating experience as those mini shrimps commonly used in Chinese cooking. Meaning, great tasting but very unpleasant texture due to the shell.
