yeah that’s a hard pass. my beef jerky doesn’t come swatting flies still. they’ve got a little work ahead of them from a marketing perspective.

I’d rather eat Rocky Mountain oysters.

Just asking to have bits stuck in your teeth all day.

eh, I’ve eaten flash fried crickets and mealworms. you can even buy them on Amazon. not bad.
if you can eat a lobster or shrimp (i.e. giant sea bugs) you can eat an insect.

Pro tip. Don’t buy edible bugs off the internet.

So, based on what you wrote, I don’t know what you expected before you clicked on the bag of Smokey Jumpers?
I mean, I don’t really blame you for not wanting them, I don’t really want crickets daily, but the bag literally says whole roasted crickets. It didn’t really occur to me that it would be presented in some other, trail mix-ey kind of way. Did I miss something?

I think it wasn’t so much that I was expecting something different as actually seeing them brought a moment of realization of what I was
about to do

I've had crickets a few times. They taste better than they look.

This comment is criminally underrated.

Reminds me of the fried maguey worm tacos I had once in Mexico City. Most disgusting thing I’ve ever eaten, hands down.

I mean, if you order it, no one is saying you have to eat it. Although tricking one of your drivers to eat it may be dangerous.

I don’t know if I can trust cookies anymore. Not that I could before with my peanut allergy but still.

there's a well known restaurant here that does toasted grasshoppers (chapulines) ... I went there with friends and even though we were pretty drunk none of us came close to putting one in our mouths.

I think I'll wait until the enviroment collapses before I start eating crickets.
