Not Going to be on the Menu, But....
I admit I'm a little lost on how to rate this. I want to be fair. The only complaint I had is the same problem you get with any variety mix. Sometimes you don't get enough of each kind, and sometimes the package lacks one of the varieties. The bugs were dehydrated and in that state rather difficult to tell which one they were. I was glad that the legs and heads fell off, which made them easier to eat. The texture was not that bad. It didn't feel like you were eating a bug. The package contained mostly worms. I don't know which one it was--the Sago or Silk worm. Of course, of the ones I tasted, they tasted pretty decent...a mixture of cheddar cheese and wheat germ. The crickets and grasshoppers tasted like cat food to me (and yes, I did try that once as a kid).I was curious, and this satisfied my curiosity. I accomplished one wild and crazy thing on my bucket list--and compared to things like jumping out of an airplane, I guess it was one of the cheaper thrills. Oh, by the way...the package looks smaller than it does in the picture. I feel satisfied with this one accomplishment, so I can go back to being boring again. I doubt bugs will ever be on my menu unless that zombie apocalypse thing happens.

Good for what it is. Fun novelty.
Can't complain, it is exactly what you're paying for. The silk worms are the tastiest.

Y'all have no idea how much I wanted to like these!
I am an enthusiastic eater! I have wanted to explore insects as food because of the information about the protein source they provide. Don't order these. They're disgusting. I am just starting to dabble in entomology as a viable food source and this product makes me never want to try again. I still feel like I have cricket legs in my throat

Smelles like chocolate...
..which is both good and bad. I recommend preparing these either by cooking or at least mixing in with something else. Not exactly for me, but I'm sure someone else might like them! I heard they are good for protein. The flavor is that of cat food, which would pair well with something sweet like steamed broccoli or mixed veggies in general, maybe some kind of potato. It might even go well with other protein sources, but I wasn't brave enough to experiment that much. Overall a good product, was as expected. A bit expensive, but I dunno how that compares to other products (this is the only kind I've ever bought). Enjoy your bugs!

Great Christmas bugs.
Every year at Christmas, my niece and I eat bugs. Last year we’re hotlix insect suckers. This year was chocolate covered scorpions. They were great and we had a fun time.

tastey
Good nutty taste sanitized not scraped from the ground but from a farm. Good source of protein, just don't get the flavored ones.
