Eating Fried Insects - How many of you had a bite at one of these appetizing insects sold on carts in the streets of Thailand? A few, I suppose. How many of you did LIKE IT? less! How many of you actually ENJOY eating them and would order more? I only see two hands left! It's all about culture isn't it? If you look at them objectively, many just look like brown shrimps, but our moms and instinct said : Shrimp = good, grasshopper = bad! But it's not like this everywhere, often related to economical hard times in history, people ate them first by necessity, then taboos start to fade and it's by taste or just fun or fashion.
To be honest with you, I don't really like them, so I hope you appreciate the sacrifice I made last night to write this story. We went to a place in Phuket where we knew insects were always available and bought 20 baht of each and drove back home. I wrote my will, kiss my wife and dog goodbye, just in case and displayed the content in front of me. And them I picked the smallest one... surprise! it's almost as bad I as thought it would be! Well, not all of them, so I let you read the details below.
