Chocolate Covered Grasshoppers

Recently, my friend Michelle had come to visit and help me with some video reviews. While she was here, she decided that WE needed to eat chocolate covered grasshoppers. I wasn’t too sure about this – and still am not! However, what you see is what happened, and both of our reactions.
Michelle’s verdict is that they were kind of tasty, and not “buggy”. I still wasn’t too sure, I mean seriously – THEY ARE BUGS! However, I resigned myself, and ate one. She’s right, it wasn’t horrible. It’s not an experience I’m likely to repeat in this lifetime, but it wasn’t half bad.
Have you ever eaten chocolate covered bugs – or anything else that would be considered to be “odd” by most people? What was it, and did you like it?

A friend from work got a scorpion in a sucker from his girlfriend, but he wasn’t going to eat it. I offered to eat it, and he took me up on said offer. It was crunchy, but mostly flavorless. The sucker itself had a bad aftertaste, so the scorpion wasn’t much worse than what it was coated in.
The “meat” of the scorpion was pretty bitter, so it wasn’t much fun to eat, but something different for sure.

Chocolate covered grasschoppers? Scorpian suckers? I’ve personally never eaten anything out of the ordinary. I’ll happily laugh & encourage others to do so, but unfortunately I can’t stomach such delicacies :P I’ll just stick to good ol’ plain chocolate thanks!
