A Glimpse Into a Gourmet Bug Tasting

It's one thing to say
you'll try any
sort of food, but another entirely to truly follow through on
your promise. That's why, right before an eight-course gourmet
bug tasting this week, I started bugging out over it. If I screamed
when I saw insects in my apartment, how was I going to bring myself
to eat them?
The one-of-a-kind dinner was organized by the
Stanford Club
of San Francisco, and featured everything from grasshoppers to
dung beetles. Flip through the gallery to find out how I fared
throughout the meal.

Greeting Table
There was no shortage of insect paraphernalia greeting me at the front door. I spotted books on entomophagy, the practice of eating insects as food, and plenty of edible bug treats, like scorpion lollipops.
