Carlos Primeros Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 The bugs they sell on the insect food market are not cockroaches. These are swimmer beetles. That's a totally different kind of beetle. Enjoy..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inThailand Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I thought if you ate them with fish sauce they were ok? Have other countries had to issue a cockroach eating warning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not for me, but that was the explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
