I’ve eaten grasshoppers, crickets, and sow bugs before. They don’t taste the greatest, but I was curious (as well as…I must admit…trying to impress the little boys I nannied). I have found through eating grasshoppers that the larger ones are more likely to taste putrid, whereas the smaller ones have little taste, mostly just texture.

LOL Funny post this! I can’t believe you would eat grasshoppers!

I like your blog and have linked to it. You can find mine if you first go to http://www.low-carb.us

Only trouble is I was looking at this guy (you) on the internet with washboard abs (without his shirt on) and my husband came in and looked over my shoulder. I found myself scrambling to explain the embarrassing situation I found myself in.

Eating grasshoppers is totally gross and I think any self respecting Grok would have passed on the bugs and instead would have bagged himself a tasty mammoth, tiger or bear…. anything!

It seems to me that historically, agricultural was probably invented because our ancestors were having to resort to eating creepy insects.

In my opinion the email writer who did this is in desperate need of intervention.

Much kudos to this dude for trying out all this stuff. I wish it was easier to to this sort of thing in the UK – you need licenses to shoot almost anything here, not to mention for the gun itself. We also have a fairly pathetic insect population.

On the food front I have been making do with an exploration of what animal products I can get from my local market. Lamb hearts, pork livers, kidneys, whole rabbbits and hares have all found their way to my wok or oven, but it’s no substitute for catching it yourself.

There are a few animals you can kill with impugnity here, of which squirrel and pigeon are the most abundant and edible. You can get a .22 pellet gun without a license, which is usually enough to take these animals out. But then you need permission to hunt them on someone’s land. In some ways Grok had it easy…

No kidding, Jerry. I get a funny image of a regular Joe in a suit and tie strolling down a suburban sidewalk with a dead rabbit slung over his shoulder. Mothers would be covering their kids’ eyes in horror.

Cute story. I just ran into the closet and dusted off my bear skin one-sy and cleaned up my poaching stick to roam the wild as a free man!!!!!
