A young Mexican was selling these at our dock this morning. When I found out what they were I thought no way and kept walking by. I stopped myself and came back for a sample which I may never do again in my life. It was crunchy and salty but it was not that bad :-) I didn't get the hot sauce or the lime which would've made it better but the single grasshopper was not that bad. But I did not want a scoop of them at this time...maybe manana.
OMG! Many years ago in high school a friend went to Chicago and being the crazy kid he was brought back chocolate covered insects for his “friends”… of course I tasted one. Crazy too but had to be “cool”. 😜. Great photo Jerzy.
Like Dorothy, I’ve tried chocolate covered bees but not grasshopper. Yet. Although I don’t recall seeing them on offer the times I’ve been in Mexico I’ll look out for them next time I’m there. They would probably pair well with a bottle of Dos Equis amber.
Well done for trying, it’s probably the next big step in our food development. I would certainly try if I saw them ( that’s if my wife would let me!!!).
