Talking about eating bugs...

A lot of people marvel at the great adventures I enjoy traveling around the world. To really and truly adventure, though, you have to melt into the fabric of the societies you visit. That means eating the local fare.

Including bugs. I have had huge catapillars rolled in leaves and roasted in an open fire. I have eaten glazed bees on rice. I have had maggot sprinkled spinach. I have eaten vinegared worms (huge) in jelly. I have eaten roasted and salted grasshoppers. I have had larva of all sorts - raw, cooked, mixed with other nasty bits.

Dining like this really makes you know you are adventuring.
