Do you know people in Mexico, eat bugs?
I was watching the news in the morning when i saw a story about a group of mexicans eat bugs , it was a story that grabbed my attention,because i hate bugs.It was about the Carrillos Family. They said bugs are a regular part of their diet, they also said "They taste a little like grasshoppers."
Carrillos' family fry the green caterpillars called "cuchama." They sell some, though they're available only a couple of months a year and don't provide much income.
Each bug has its own distinct taste from the spicy, leggy bodies of locusts; the crusty, french-fried caterpillars; or bursting, buttery ant eggs which are more of an acquired taste, insect cuisine is winning converts in a variety of ways.
Consider locusts, covered in chocolate or sweet sauce, and worms, in Jell-O or clear, hard candy.The mexican kids love it, and so do people all over the world.
