Mexican food = dried grasshopers


For some people, that's really not a common food. I didn't like it for two reasons. First : those dried grasshopers taste like celery, and I hate celery. Second : after eating, you got their legs caught between your teeth.

Pour certaines personnes, ce n'est vraiment pas une nourriture commune. Je n'ai pas aimé les criquets séchés pour deux raisons. premièrement, ceux-là avaient un goût de céleri, et je déteste le céleri. Deuxièmement, leurs pattes et antennes restent coincées pendant des heures entre les dents.

  3. I saw these for sale in Hong Kong and in Indonesia, but I didn't feel at all tempted. They were very popular in both places with the locals.

  4. In Beijing I even saw some small grilled black scoprions on sticks. Unfortunately I didn't have time to take any pic of it. My girlfriend is chinese, but she runs away when she sees any bug. Even as a food ^^.
