I ate a bug. On purpose.

My student's mom invited me to a lunch group today. The lunch was really nice with lots of traditional Korean foods. The woman next to me wanted me to try her silkworm cocoons. They call it Beondegi. I tried it, and it wasn't that bad. I am not going to make it a regular snack, but I am glad that I was adventurous. Now I can always say I've licked an ant's bum AND eaten a worm cocoon.

I threw up a little bit when I read your post.

I was in class.

I'm real proud of you. Those cocoons do like quite delicious, probably a rich source of protein. You come to my world and we'll eat stink bugs, they taste like cinnamon with sugar.
