I’m old fashioned. I throw away any food that gets insects in it

I didn’t climb to the top of the food chain to eat bugs.

Will they publish an article when said cricket bread proves to be a commercial flop?

Next think you know, they’ll be trying to get me to drink beer that’s had little critters swimming around pissing in it. I ain’t falling for it.

If you want me to swallow a bug, you have to soak it in water its entire life. (Lobster, crab, shrimp, crayfish = yes, cricket, roach, centipede = no).

I have hosed grasshoppers off my car’s grill with radiator water, shaking up a bottle of Coca Cola (the squatty green ones that cost a nickle), spraying them first to loosen them up if they were a baked-on mess.

I can truthfully say that never once did anyone say, “Let’s eat those bugs,” though occasionally someone would comment, “It took a lot of guts to do that!” if a really juicy hopper hit the windshield, and we laughed like it was the first time we heard it because we all remembered the first time we said it.
They’re bait, not food.

The damned legs tickle your throat on the way down.

They’ve got to breed a legless cricket just for baking.

Long ago and far away while under the influence of a lot of saki I ate a cricket soaked in plum sauce. Not my finest appetizer. :-)

Get back to me when risotto is made from bugs. Then again, scratch that…

I enjoyed an excellent seafood risotto last night at Lago in Las Vegas. I can’t imagine introducing bugs into such a fine meal.
