I'm told that eating fried bugs is a popular snack in Thailand. Different vendors actually sell them and you also purchase them at the local market. I promised the MCM Ministry School team that I would eat a fried bug while I was in Thailand. Well, tonight was my night I guess you could say. Not only did I eat one, but I actually ate 4 different kinds! The one that I'm holding in my hand in is a larva or grub worm of some kind. Whatever it was, it had one of the worst "after-tastes" that I've ever experienced. Then there were a couple different kinds of crickets as well as a grasshopper. The best tasting one (or the least offensive tasting one) was actually the grasshopper (I can't believe I just said that).
Several others on our team also ate some bugs. Scroll down to see some up-close pics of these Thailand "snacks." The large water bugs or cockroaches (I don't remember what kind they were) were huge - at least several inches in length. I didn't eat one of those. Gilbert did, however, and it took him about 15 minutes to finally get it all down. I enjoyed watching him almost "lose his lunch" in the process. It was priceless. The pics below are worth a view. Enjoy. . .
No joke - this is for real. Since Jason Bartlett (Shortstop for the Tampa Bay Rays) stole a base in game #1 of the World Series, Taco Bell restaurants are giving away FREE TACOS on Tuesday, Oct. 28th from 2pm-6pm (local time). No purchase is required, and the limit is one taco per customer. This is part of their promotion called "Steal A Base, Steal A Taco." Click Here for more details.
