    I just got a great pressie from my boss from a trip away. Salt n Vinegar Crickets..Was'nt expecting that when he said salt n vinegar, bbq or bacon and cheese.. Now the bbq flavour are larva which I just tasted and they actually arent that bad..I havent gone to taste the crickets yet I may need some wine to go with them but was thinking they would be great for Halloween for games or cake toppings, would anyone know a place in town perhaps that would sell something like these..

    Buy some from the pet shop, freeze them, then deep-fry them. I've had crickets stir-fried this way before. I didn't like them that much because I thought they tasted like courgette. Bet the crispy ones are nicer. :)
