Summary

[edit]
Description

The wheel bug...of death. A very large bug whose impales other insects, injects liquids that dissolve the insides f the insect, and then sucks it back up. I have wondered, what if we used these same chemicals as tenderizers for meat or perhaps, if one were to get more into eating insects we presoaked grasshoppers or other things that are traditionally eaten...what would that taste like. So many things to learn from insects. Collected by Ashley Bradford, who lived to see another day.
