Falcon and I had a load of insects in Bangkok. The locusts are indeed very good. The spicy ants were just too darned hot for my tastes though. I can imagine they'd be good as fillings for dumplings.

Just not sure how these insects are caught. I saw a guy trying to catch a frog in the road in Bangkok though, but it became roadkill.

What's the problem with eating insects? Most are pretty tasty.

Really guys I've never tried it ... maybe because I've never been to Asia.
