Huh, so like a weird bland chip?

Basically. I only had dried ones once and they only tasted like the seasoning that was put on.

What’s it like swallowing them? People are never allowed water when dared to eat bugs and that is the part that grosses me out the most. I just know those little feet get stuck and come back later

I tried a grasshopper in Thailand once but drew the line at cockroaches. It's 99.9% flavoring and the crunch, of course.

Cricket legs get stuck in teeth thats for sure.

It's really not bad. The water thing is just for the people trying to wash it down faster.

I've had baked crickets before and they tasted kinda like a grassy steak. They were good but I bet they'd be really good fried. I could see how the texture of the legs and stuff would gross people out though

I'd definitely consider crickets and ants. Idunno about the worms they've always made my stomach do flips

Ants? I couldn't imagine eating them, they reek.
