I would put a $100 bet they taste like fried shrimp. Having personally had fried locusts just like that in Africa I can confirm the taste. Grasshoppers are good as well the Mexicans make a mighty fine taco with them. You can get them for $5 or more each in Austin at a number if high end Mexican restaurants. Much of the world eats insects or insect products on a regular basis it’s all in people heads. Protein is protein.

The Thai have a dizzying array of scorpions, beatles and caterpillars for sale everywhere.
