minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish20•8 months agoI had salt and vinegar crickets. They were good, as long as you didn’t try to savor them.
minus-squareCowbee [he/they]linkfedilink13•8 months agoI had mine in taco form. Spiced with cumin and probably fried, they were good when the legs weren’t getting stuck in my teeth, haha
