Eating Bugs And Insects! Are You Brave Enough?

Eating Bugs And Insects! Are You Brave Enough? Are you brave enough to eat a BUG? Check out the best insects to star here:

2 billion - That’s the average amount of people that eat insects around the world. So why is it that most of the Western culture has such an unwillingness to eat these protein-packed snacks? Our ancestors ate them – but for some reason, we don’t tend to think of them as a food option anymore.

If you’re thinking, “I’d never eat a bug!” You’re not alone.

It took me several months before I was brave enough to eat one and I must say it tasted actually quite nice. And since then, I have tried all sorts of different bugs. I have eaten crickets, beetles, grasshoppers, caterpillars, and many more. And it's not just me, more and more people in the Western culture are catching on to the benefits of eating bugs. These crunchy snacks are making a comeback. Many insect species are considered safe to eat. You might have even seen cricket protein powder on the shelf of your location health food store.

So, what is it like to bite into one of these crispy critters?

If you can get past the initial crunch, dried bugs and worms are actually a tasty treat. They’re high in protein and fiber, and low in carbs. No – they don’t taste like chicken. I would say that they have a rather delicious, nutty flavor, especially when they’re well roasted. That’s why consuming crickets, worms – and even tarantulas – is considered a delicacy in most Eastern cultures. I think that eating insects will slowly become a novelty cuisine in Western cultures as well.

So, Still not totally convinced? If you are brave enough, or adventures perhaps, then check out the link below this video where I have listed all the edible bugs and also posted some pictures of the ones that I have eaten and where you can get them. Check it out now at FoodHow.com
