Here in Mexico I've actually had pizza with roasted crickets as a topping. (Not my favorite, but worth trying just to test the concept.) ~eric. MeridaGOround.com

We'll eat bugs. Every one of us, if we get hungry enough.

Years and years ago I wrote a very bad dystopian essay about a young urban couple who starved to death after searching for food in orchards filled with ripe fruit and fields of spinach, potatoes, and carrots. They couldn't find any plants with cans, bottles, or boxes hanging from the branches and had no idea food could be found underground. Can't remember if bugs were featured anywhere or how a young urban couple managed to find their way to farm country. Crazy dystopia. Sadly, this essay is trapped in a backup tape that requires Windows 98 to access.
