Bud worms, wait!

Most of us deal with them, all of us hate them, but. If one looks around at high end candies you find things like chocolate covered grass hoppers, ants, caterpillars, but isn't a bud worm a caterpillar? Then shouldn't we be toasting them (decarb), covering them in fine chocolate and enjoying them, instead of smashing, spraying etc.? And since they have been munching on the best parts of the plant shouldn't they be loaded with the oils? Just how high can one get eating chocolate covered bud worms? Are we missing out here?
 
Couple years ago I thought someone on here was saving them for saute. Can't remember what came of it. Could be good. I haven't seen any for a while or I would try it. I hope I don't get the chance.
 
I think You’ve found a niche market for your giant tree pests !
Have you ever eaten ( knowingly) any insects??
Spending most of my life in Vancouver, I have a lot of immigrant friends and have eaten some pretty weird stuff. Spicy Stir fried grubs, chocolate covered ants, and a cake made with cricket flour....
😂 That’s right cricket flour..... it’s a thing 😂
 
If you count running down the highways and byways on the Harley, then I have eaten bugs! In my state the testing required would be a show stopper, they would contain to much bug for resale!
 
I’ve spent most of my life managing large industrial food production plants. If people had any idea what they eat daily, most of the snowflakes would die of starvation.
Especially the vegans. They might not consume mammal protein, but they’re getting plenty of insect protein!
 
I bet all y'all dont wont to know which chain burger store used earthworm protein in their burgers, and now they are going to make a meatless burger, I'll pass!
 
Rwise- Started my career with 21years in poultry/beef slaughter....😂 First job was hanging live chickens on the kill line.
In my 20’s we used to play this game at parties, where we would take bets on which girls I could get to throw up first with my multitude of disgusting stories...
Ahhhh.. good times😂😂
You must have been in one of these fine facilities as well, since you’re asking?
 
lalaland I was raised on a farm, we went to the slaughter house with cows and hogs, there was one 1/2 mile from here, not anymore. I have to laugh when adds say "never frozen" and "fresh" as beef is hung and aged in a freezer.
 
grouchyoldman I have to bring up an old article from High Times where in a certain desert country they feed the weed to camels and smoke the shit! So maybe we should gather the bud worm poo and smoke it!

The most disgusting thing I ever tried to eat was pig brains and scrambled eggs. Mom would not tell us what it was, I took a bite and ran out the door puking! Mom said that was an honest opinion!

I have caught, killed, skinned and made red Thai curry and wallets out of rattlesnakes but brain you couldn't get me to eat, not even for money.
