Biggest Insect You've Ever Eaten/What Insect Are You Eating?
 
I used to eat small bugs when I was a baby (so they say), although I don't remember doing that. Mmmm, yumm! Any of you folks do something similar?

I could never eat a spider

Welllll, this thread is SORT of a joke, because the title looks funny. But kids eat bugs all the time. I never ate those chocolate covered cockroaches, though. I did buy some lollipops with bees inside them, but just to look at them.

The closest I'll come to eating a bug nowadays is a shrimp or a lobster. (Hey, you have to move up in the world.)

If I saw a shrimp scuttling across the floor I would probably try to do something to it, because it would look horrible and dangerous. But if someone grabbed it, peeled its shell off, and stir-fried it with some garlic, I would probably be looking for a plate and a napkin.

I swallowed the worm while drinking tequila. I used to eat ants when I was 3 or 4.

The biggest insect I've ever seen was a huge praying mantis on some doctor's car.

I never swallowed the tequila worm. Someone always got it before I did...

Biggest bugs I've seen are these industrial strength critters that fly around--I see them when I drive out into the California desert--the farther you get from civilization, the bigger the bugs get. I swear they're the size of small birds out there. Big buzzing, fluttering things.

I've never eaten a bug, I was always kinda freaked by bugs when I was a kid.

If anybody here is into eating bugs, there are plenty of ladybugs here I could pack up and send to you.

I will eat Ladybug Paste. I make an exception there. That's like a pate, you puree a couple thousand of them fresh in a blender with some butter and cilantro and a little garlic. It's great on toast triangles! ;)

Eww! :p Those things smell disgusting(ladybugs I mean)...I believe I'd rather eat anything than a ladybug.

This thread reminds me, my dad told me he ate a grasshopper once...I believe it was a grasshopper. Yuck...it disgusts me to even look at those things. :p
