pieeyed Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I think 7/11 now sells them in sealed bags just like when you buy peanuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maibork Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I think 7/11 now sells them in sealed bags just like when you buy peanuts. Indeed 7-11 sells them in small sealed bags. Also available in Tops supermarket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 As a kid way back in the 70s here in the states, I remember some kid bringing into school some cans of chocolate covered Ants, and fried grasshoppers or crickets. Yeah we all showed how manly we were and ate some as the girls screamed. Decades later I find myself in Thailand walking by bug carts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeniau96 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 per GK1000200, years ago while in college in the USA I had urge to try many different things. While in a large store favored by trendy hippie types looking for foreign (mostly Asian) furniture, blouses, etc I noted a specilty food section. Sure enough, had tins of grasshoppers, ants, larvae, etc. So probably still around in similar stores in USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She insists that it is some different insect..... But well for her it is shocking that I would eat a rabbit or horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
