Not much. It’s mainly just a texture. I think the most flavorful was a type of ant that tasted kind of like a black bean.
Coffee with a bit of techno usually
I already tasted a few variations, mainly criquets with different seasoning. The salty, deep fried one, tasted like fries, the sweet ones like caramel covered corn chips. So basically, it doesn’t have a lot of taste, but cool texture.
Tried mealworm and I think crickets before. Reminded me of sunflower seeds
I’ve eaten fried grasshoppers and similar insects in SE Asia. They taste like crispy pork to me.
I had crickets in laos, they tasted kind of like a bean with some good curry spices added.
I had sushi that was crusted with ants instead of seaweed in Colombia. It tasted a lot like a dark chocolate.
Once ate a ladybug on a dare when I was a kid.
Ladybugs are toxic and taste extremely bitter. They taste that way on the way back up, and that taste sticks the fuck around.
Fried leaf cutter ant queen abdomen (it’s just a ball full of eggs) reminds me of bacon.
I ate some chocolate-coated crickets once. I’m not sure what they tasted like, but not chocolate. I also tried cornchips made with cricket flour instead of cornmeal. They didn’t taste much of anything.
I ate locusts once, I could only taste the seasonings on them. Nice and crunchy though.
Chicken
Seasoned crickets are good. Too expensive.
Tastes like bugs
