1) it has to be dead.
I quite liked chocolate covered grasshoppers. Kind of crunchy and honey tasting.



Have you verified how dead they were under that chocolate covering?

By the time you cook the oysters (don't like the taste raw) and octopus (pulpo Gallejo, mmmmmmm) they're dead.

I am reminded of the Star Trek episode where number 1 was on temporary duty to a Klingon station. His first experience in the chow hall he is given a plate of some good-awful worm-like substance and he looks at it with revulsion. The Klingons are all set to laugh (or whatever it is that Klingons do) at his wimpiness when he says, "I can't eat this. It's not even alive."
