I have lived and worked on all continents of the world except Australia and Antarctica searching for oil. I have ate a lot of strange stuff. I have not tried bugs yet but would.
If they tasted good what the hell, put them on the menu. I grew up in West Texas and South Louisiana.
You would be surprised what we ate in South Louisiana. If it tasted good and would not kill you we ate it. The swamp was an absolute paradise for a young kid growing up. It taught you much about food and survival. That swamp would feed you. If you were not a swamp rat it could kill you.
Most fear the alligator. It is the Water Moccasin that will get you.
