Is it safe to eat raw grasshoppers or do they need to be cooked first

sure why not

Insects are typically rife with parasites so you'll want to fry them. Makes them crunchy and dries them out so they don't squirt when you bite them. They're delicious that way, but I'd also suggest keeping them alive for a few days and feeding them oats to clean them out so they don't taste like dirt before hand.

Nah bro, go ham on that crunchy shit.

nope

fuck it if I'm starving to death I'll just die

Usually they're left to starve for a week before they're killed.

It's so that they'll empty their bowels for good and you don't have to eat their shit.

So what if i let it stave or judt remove the parasites, is it still safe after the removal and roasting?
