Bug Cuisine

[David In Indy]

We have a seafood here in Australia which are actually called bugs ...Depending on which waters they are found in, they carry the name Balmain Bugs, or Moreton Bay Bugs......they are like a little lobster....and delicious.

Those sound like crawfish Sue.

Some of my relatives live in South Louisiana and crawfish are a delicacy down there too. Very Cajun. I wonder if Balmain Bugs or Moreton Bay Bugs and crawfish are the same thing or perhaps related?

I think they may all be the same "genus"....is that the right term?




And yes they are Awesome to eat...........and yes..............they are "bugs".

Confucius say, "He who work in frankfurt factory NEVER eat frankfurt."   

ya'll ever see those big harvesters out there gathering grain and stuff? there is guidelines that tell you how much bug parts per ton you are allowed to have...there is simply no way to get them all out..

so in reality we have all eaten plenty of bugs....

I dont like eating anything that you have to eat the whole thing....eyes, ears, tongues, noses....YUCKYUCKYUCK

peanut butter is the worst....whenever I eat it I try not to look too close and if I see anything by accident I just tell myself it is some of that little 'skin' they have....
