Against all logic that says its fine, I don't think I could eat insects. My cousin has told me about eating ants in Mexico and Cicadas in Peru (apparently they are a lot like shrimp), and he says its fine. I can't get past it. So many cultures around the world revere different types of bugs, but they aren't for me.
Logic doesn't play a strong role in most of our food-fear. When I was in Peru I ate Guinea Pig and Alpaca. I didn't enjoy the guinea pig though because I had one as a pet as a kid. Just didn't seem right. No logic there, all emotion. We used to dare each other as kids to eat ants. I don't recall what they taste like.
Quoted at dinner tonight. Laughs ensued. Then came everyones stories of ant eating; it is more common than I thought.If they tasted good more people would eat them.
