i believe locusts are considered kosher.

The Torah in Parshat Shmini says:

"Every flying insect that uses four legs for walking shall be avoided by you. The only flying insects with four walking legs that you may eat are those which have knees extending above their feet, [using these longer legs] to hop on the ground. Among these you may only eat members of the red locust family, the yellow locust family, the spotted gray locust family and the white locust family. All other flying insects with four feet [for walking] must be avoided by you."

Regards,

i wonder what wine goes best with the spotted gray locust...

and does the color coincide with the ooze that is expelled when chomping on them...
Gear Son! Another round of red locusts for the lot of us.
