I’ve seen her videos. She will eat anything.

However, grasshoppers are not objectionable, to me, because they are vegetarian and they don’t eat other insects.

Freeze-dry them for chickens. People pay stupid money for freeze-dried mealworms.

What is this "climate crisis" crap?

it is the left's way of blaming judgment on productive people rather than sinners.

Those are some smart grasshoppers...they know everybody in North Idaho is armed to the teeth and won’t let them start their shenanigans here.

No, they have to be dry roasted like coffee beans and lightly salted and crushed pepper added.

Interesting that they’re smart enough not to mess with Texas!

Yeah, that is an amazingly straight line along the border. Now if we can do as well with those other parasites- democRats!
