Have you ever tasted any of these crispies? If you visit Thailand, you may try some. They can be found on streets. On the top left is golden brown silkworm. On top right is yellow silkworm larvae. Yes, silkworm that feeds on mulberry leaves. All these are fried crisply and sprinkled with salt and spices. Below (right) is mole cricket caught from rice fields when farmers harrow the soil. Such yummy creepers! (Sorry for the quality of this photo.)
No, these are not large cockroaches! These are water bugs. Dare to try it? I haven't yet.
Crickets are known edible even in Bible times. Yummy!
See what kind of bug it is.

Interesting! I hope we can travel to Thailand to taste these exotic food. By the way, this blog is already in my list of "Interesting Sites." Have a great day!
@marites, so you found grasshopper crispy, hahaha!
I've tried crickets but never to eat its rough legs again. I did remove only the wings but not the legs but not good for the throat if you're not used to them, hehehe!
