I'm a classically trained chef and I have to say that while I'm adventurous, there's NO WAY I'm eating any of my feeders. Nope, just isn't going to happen. However, I'm more than willing to try just about any non-insect/spider in the name of learning. My limit is that it must not be an endangered creature. This past July when I was in Bonaire, I tried iguana. It's a delicacy there and I was curious. I won't have it again (entirely too many bones making for more work than it was worth). I also tried lion fish which is extremely invasive in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico - it was prepared as a ceviche (raw, but "cooked" in lime juice and spices), and I'll definitely have that again. There's my two cents and I'm interested to see how everyone's roasted superworms, etc. taste!

Man! Thats the type of stuff i want to get into! Travel the world and eat some pretty amazing stuff. One of my favorite fishes is a LionFish, Might have to try that. I've also had 3 iguanas :'(
And to everyone I was joking about the superworm LOL. Wanted to see how many people thought i was crazy. Superworms are way too crunchy and juicy for me to want to try live haha. But i've had one inside a lollipop awhile ago. Also a scorpion. I got the fried salt & pepper idea from watching bizarre foods with andrew zimmerman

Several years ago, the parents of my son's class put on a skit for the school to see. We decided to do a Fear Factor type skit. No one wanted to eat anything bizarre to make the skit interesting, so I told the parents I would eat a hissing cockaroach. So I took a few on stage and ate a live one in front of the school. My goal in the first crunch in my mouth was to kill it right away as this stunt was already gross enough. Boy, the audience was entertained, but that roach was the nastiest tasting thing I have ever eaten. Getting the taste out of my mouth definitley took a while.

Oooooh! I had chinicuiles while I lived in Mexico. They are maguey worms, which are caterpillars that live in the maguey cactus. They look like red mealworms and were served with tortillas. De-li-cious....When people ask me what they taste like, the only thing I can say is....uh....worms.

@chameleoman and @gabe:
No and no...
We already know you're just as weird as the rest of us and secretly eat crickets and dubias when nobody is looking.
No worries man we've got your back when the Texas weird police come for you. We'll help you get set up in hippie bug eating California or something.
