But if hunger would strike, I'm sure many people would chomp on grasshoppers readily...even me!Plowing Through Life (Martha)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06547318824997712369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104745414778029014.post-31250194757658498762014-10-14T06:09:37.869-04:002014-10-14T06:09:37.869-04:00Well done you.

I had a locust plague last year, which the birds cleaned up in a day.

I can imagine they would need a fair bit of salt as the previous reader said.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104745414778029014.post-73463664085261971682014-10-11T16:54:17.883-04:002014-10-11T16:54:17.883-04:00I am so impressed!

I have eaten grasshoppers many times, as they are a luxury food in Oaxaca and of course everybody wants to see the gringa eat bugs :) I can't say they are my favorite, either, but my kids like them a lot. There, they come in many sizes, the bigger the more expensive, and they are toasted and served with the legs on. I can't remember ever seeing wings, though. It's interesting to know that the color is intrinsic to the animal and not, as I had thought, the result of spicing. Chapulines, as they are called, also come in many flavor variations. My favorite are extremely lemony, but a lot of people prefer the garlic flavor. Try using garlic powder! And of course, you are salting them, right? Good for you.
