live beetle bugs.........they crunch and bug guts ooze out and their legs wiggle in your mouth and down your throat..........shudder.........and yes I have eaten them for real........escape, evasion and survival course.....

and Rocky Mountain Oysters (if soaked in salt water immediately after detachment and then rinsed, dried, dredged in flour, then eggs, then flour again and fried in hot bacon drippings/grease) are damn tasty.........I always got to carry the bucket as a little kid during calf branding time at my great uncle's ranch...........they rope the calf, tie it down, I run out with the salt water bucket, snip snip and in the bucket, then I run back to the fence and wait for the next calf............
