There any preporation needed, or just heat them over a fire as shown?

[NaturalBushcraft]

@porkerthepig Make sure you skin them, gut them, I recommend leave hanging for 2 days to age, lol... nah only joking mate :) No preparation needed, heat till they stop moving and heat a little more. All the best,

Hmmm. I would like to give this a try lol. I gather they are packed with protein?

[NaturalBushcraft]

@boyrichboy Absolutely bud, there's 900g of protein to each Woodlouse ;D

[fixyourfacenow]

@NaturalBushcraft hate to sound like a smart-ass but....you cant get that amount of protein from one woodlouse. it would defy every scientific law regarding it, If you ate 1kg of woodlice then you would probably have 900g of protein from them.

they are pretty tasty though for a bug haha

@fixyourfacenow lol - It was a joke! I thought that'd be obvious :)

[NaturalBushcraft]

@bean432 It was a joke! - You don't need to skin your woodlive first :p

[fixyourfacenow]

@NaturalBushcraft oh lol sorry, i didn't realise that was a joke because the amount of people who have said stuff similar to that to me have genuinely believed what they was saying, it bugs me massively. so i do appologise

@branni79 Oh, and not to mention. That sure does look like some pricey gear, a pot pie tray from the dollar store, a few sticks, a fire. Sure is expensive!

I've read all your comments and you're a hypocritical fool. No offense, I mean none, but you are.

Say things are none of your business you only asked, then why ask? It's only your opinion, then why get mad when they state theirs?

I don't know either of you, but you are very flawed in your world view and logic. You're silly.

@branni79 You're a fool. He puts videos on youtube helping people and somehow that's not cool to people who charge money for the skills? Could you imagine if every professional used your logic what the internet would look like?

Remember the next time you use the net to learn, or read something, anything, you're taking money from someone elses pocket. No matter what it is, there is probably someone making money doing or teaching.

Don't be that guy, because right now, you are; silly!
