Eating insects in Kao San Road - Thailand

[tinaldi]

that's right and the French eat snails and call then escargot like it's some exotic cuisine. Not that I have anything against escargot and all that but just that different cultures have differing habits and gastronomical preferences. That doesnt mean they're barbaric.

Think about it, if you were growing up eating these like chickens and beef then it wouldn't be nasty at all.. I've ate sea snail before, to be honest first time I saw it I thought it was nasty but when you eat that shit it's hella good.

[JvPaVp]

God damn racist people. Who cares what they eat, it's their cultures. Over here in America people eat brains and turtles, and that might of seem weird to some people but why do you think it's nasty and they are eating it? Because they have tasted it and you never have that's why you think it's gross. These insects are about 80%+ full of proteins, it is better than eating meats. Just because it's a crawler doesn't mean it's nasty and gross.

Visit Thailand?? Ok, I wanna ask you. Did you go to Thailand as a backpacker?? How did you move around there?

[skdesign]

Yes, i went backpacking around asia, it was great! how did i move round? By train, taxi, tuk tuk, plane etc... was quite easy...

[chaghar]

there is a lot of protein in insects.

[conoba]

Exotic.

I would love to try some one day. Preferably worms or caterpillars.

[skdesign]

You can try insects in England too.. Selfridges sell a brand of sweets, that include insects.. the brand is called Edible..

or even better, go visit Thailand.. it's a wonderful place!

i could understand why they eat insects. I mean there like barbaric they cant afford shit. Like chickens and beef regular stuff. But insects theres like an endless suply u dnt even have to go and buy them you just find them in some crack corner or forest etc. so maybe thats why they eat wierd shit cause its free and cheep.

[skdesign]

barbaric hey? Thats what ignorant pl say about cultures and ideas that they know nothing about, and is different from there own.

Have some respect for other cultures damn it..

Europeans eat horses tongues, intestines, AND insects too.. There are plenty of americans that eat insects.. there's pizza restaurants that specialise in insect toppings...

Get educated, and learn to have some respect..

@P1NKBABEsS What are you talking about? "Barbaric" refers to violence. Your "understanding" is quite insufficient.

[donisthabomb1]

@P1NKBABEsS regular stuff, hahaha you really are ignorant. 

[kyuubiowns]

ok lol .... -_- EASE hope u get stuck on an Island 1 day and u get no choice but to eat worms / insects to survive :D

[Amathev]

Oh come on, don't blame all Asians just because they eat crap in Thailand.

That's like saying all white people are disgusting because French eat snails.

[skdesign]

[skdesign]

[bazzatheblue]

I`ve eaten various bugs and insect like creatures in Thairand and i wasn`t impressed at all.

[mrpower328]

How could be eat that stuff. Thats not made for the human body

[skdesign]

Insects actually have a lot of protein and nutrients which are very beneficial to human beings, and are a lot easier and environmentally friendly to harvest, However I agree with you, I can't believe that I tried that stuff.. it tasted disgusting!! HAHAHAA

[mrpower328]

Yeah I did research and your right insects have lots of proteins and nutrients. But I'll stick with my beans, vegetables and friuts for my nutrients. No bugs for me. lol. By the way what did those taste like and where did they get some many bugs?

[skdesign]

I only ate the worm! and it was gross! tasted like the sea! but with some little bits in it... the skin got stuck in my teeth! and it's like eating some puss!! yuk!

Apparently the scorpion just tasted like a crunchy biscuit...

[skdesign]

I ate a worm!! texture wasn't nice at all!! felt like spewing afterwards!

[TrxyLoco]

OMG, our crap music has spread to Thailand?
