Yay this is locust!! I cannot believe that some place in Japan eat this insect!

The reason why today I introduce it is because the looks is sooooooo bizarre. It looks very insect!
However, as you know it is said "Calcium of the field" in Japan, locust is good for our body. Thus, you can eat it form the head through to the entire body.
Some people said that the taste is like small shrimp. Moreover, this insect has grown up in rice fields, so if you bite a lot, you can feel the taste of rice from this food.

I have never tried to eat it, but maybe try it someday...
