Doggedly searching for the crux of the biscuit.
I loves me some Thai food. Or perhaps I just love Americanized versions of Thai food. Following a link from Pharyngula, I happened upon a website of obscure Thai delicacies, including snake and lizard whiskeys, assorted frog meals, and various insects packaged every which way. For my money, however, the winner would have to be the Juicy Preserved Pregnant Crickets, which are described as "tasty," "packed full of eggs," and "extremely nutritious." Which may all be true, but I'm having trouble getting past the "juicy" part.
Would Smoke-Cured Pregnant Crickets be more palatable?

Stay away from the reptile-infused whiskeys though. Seriously bad juju.

Because everybody knows the pig came from eating insects with a closed mind?
