[quote=LEMONCACTUS,251301]Fried or boiled silkworm Davec ? I heard fried are much better... I went to dinner with a very poor farming family out in the countryside. They went to a lot of trouble to make a special meal for me and one of the dishes was boiled silkworms. They were boiled in their cases - with nothing else. I have to say I was "obliged" to eat one - very much against what all my instincts were telling me - and it tasted of nothing. I did eat the case too, which I was told afterwards I should have spat out. But I was way to eager to get the whole lot out of my mouth as quickly as possible. What was truly disgusting was the way it kind of "burst" in my mouth. The thought of it and the texture were far worse than the taste. I don't intend to try them again. A lot of insect food is a gimmick. The scoprions are much cheaper on the night markets in Beijing.... Some people will eat anything if it's expensive.[/quote]
