Girl Meets Bug Meets The Doctors

I got to serve bugs to Dr. Ordon on The Doctors!

By the way, they edited out the part where I advise NOT to eat bugs raw, in general. I have eaten these larvae raw in the past (once on a radio show), but mainly because I am aware of their origins and I feel pretty confident they are safe. Again, in general, my advice is to treat bugs like you would any other meat: cook 'em! They taste better that way, anyhow. Also, if you're allergic to shellfish, forego insects -- studies have found they are closely linked, biologically.
Everyone else, bug appetit!

All of those dishes look delicious!. Thank You "Girl Meets BuG" I recently started taking an interest as insects as a food source(Thanks to Bizarre Foods) and would like to Thank You ,Daniella, for the info you have provided. Keep Up the Good Work. Should ever need a "Taster"/"Human Test Subject". I would like to Volunteer !

@w84q Awesome, thanks!

Entomaphogy is the wave of the future. I have recently started making meal worms a part of my diet. Easy to raise and quite delicious. Would like to find more info on scorpion consumption. I live in AZ and we have plenty of them here. But I don't think I should just randomly eat any scorpion I happen to find. Any info on which ones are edible and which ones to avoid, would be welcomed.

@w84q Yes, I understand AZ is crawling with scorpions -- I can't wait to go! Apparently, more than half of the 80 species of US scorps live in Arizona alone; and only one of those species is considered lethal: the Arizona Bark Scorpion. If I were you, I would learn to identify this one, and steer clear of it! In general, my understanding is that heat will denature the venom of most bugs; however, with scorps, unless they are very small, I always cut off the stinger, just to be safe.

I loved Daniella's swagger when she was walking out... man oh man. Thanks again for the interview Daniella (Tyler from The Webmaster's Corner on the CLW83 Network)

[GirlMeetsBug]

@HWM09 You bet, Tyler! Thanks! :)

Dont forget! Theyre doctors, they only eat good food. I just hate it when they over exaggerate then like it at the end and its normal.

YOU STUPID BASTARDS ! LEARN WHAT AN INSECT IS !

GODAMNIT

[moviesforcolin]

None of the first three "insects" shown are insects at all!! Spiders and scorpions are arachnids, worms are annelids.

[Vidde56]

Whiny doctors, i'd eat that, it's no big deal as long as the food doesn't move and tastes good.

[DancingIsPassion171]

Interesting!

[twincitiesnaturalist]

Wha? They say "insects" and then the first things they show are a Spider, a Worm. and a Scorpion. That's two arachnids and one annelid. None of them are insects. The stupid, it hurts.

I recently went to malaysia for a camp, and the bugs there were pretty good, Just catch them from the forest, dump all in a pot, add oil and salt, and it tastes pretty awesome

So far I have tried alot of the bugs from Thailand and they all taste pretty good. I recommend everyone brave enough to try these exotic tastes in Laos or Thailand because they are amazing! In all my 16 years of life I have yet tasted such new flavors. I wish to try puffer fish next.
