Talk about unappetizing…

March 12th, 2008

Believe it or not, this article gets more appalling after this bit:

If all of this is making you a bit queasy, we understand. It’s not every day that you find out you’ve been celebrating the resurrection of Christ by consuming handfuls of insect-infused treats your entire life. But before you head to the medicine cabinet, consider this. That pill you want to take to quell your nausea? It didn’t get shiny on its own. Alright, we swear, this is the last time we’ll mention that you’ve been eating insects for a good majority of your life.

But guess what? It isn’t. Ugh.

    I don't hear a lot of complaints about honey. It's a bee secretion.

    To balance things out, one of the red dyes -- Red Dye #47, I think -- has two major uses: insecticide, and lipstick coloring.

    Big deal. When you stop and think about it, cow's milk and chicken eggs are a bit disturbing, too. Depends on what you're used to, I suppose.

    And there's lobster. If a bug lives in the ocean, apparently nobody thinks it's a bug any more. Look at that lobster in that tank in the restaurant. Dude, you're eating a bug.

    Heck, the Aussies call 'em Moreton Bay Bugs. Gotta hand it to them, eh? They sure don't mince words.

    Good point about the tasty crustaceans, guys. I guess I ain't giving up eating bugs anytime soon, with that in mind. Or ever, if I have anything to say about it.

    Have you ever heard of CRICKET-LICKITS? or maybe AMBER INSECT INSIDE or CHOCOLATE COVERED GRASSHOPPERS
