WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This file as others is not finished, so bare with me, meanwhile
|
||
|
|
much information still can be used for your pleasure. Thanks!

|
INSECTS AS FOOD YES! OUI, OUI!:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
THERE IS SCARCELY ANY KIND OF INSECT WHICH A SURVIVOR COULD
|
||
|
|
NOT SAFELY EAT.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Starvation next to impossible!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
INSECTS ARE WONDERFUL FOOD BEING MOSTLY FAT & FAR MORE
|
||
|
|
STRENGTHENING THAN EITHER FISH OR MEAT.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
IT DOES NOT TAKE MANY INSECTS TO KEEP YOU FIT. (ASK A BEAR.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't be squeamish about eating insects as it is
|
||
|
|
entirely uncalled for. In parts of Mexico the most
|
||
|
|
nutritious food is made from the eggs of small insects found
|
||
|
|
in the marshes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In Japan #draning needles# or dragon flies are delicacy.
|
||
|
|
They have a delicious delicate taste so BE SURE to try them
|
||
|
|
after all millions of Japanese can't be all wrong.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MOTHS, MAYFLIES IN FACT ABOUT ALL THE INSECTS FOUND IN THE
|
||
|
|
WOODS ARE VERY EDIBLE = (GOOD.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The only one which gives a bitter taste is the ants because
|
||
|
|
they contain formic acid.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Grasshoppers or locust are considered a delicacy in
|
||
|
|
many countries. It is best to remove wings and legs & toast
|
||
|
|
the body on a stick. So are cicadas*, termites, locusts
|
||
|
|
and crickets ARE EDIBLE.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
REMEMBER that ALL Locusts, crickets, termites, ants, larva
|
||
|
|
etc. have double advantages; easy to catch & nourishing,
|
||
|
|
fried or roasted gives a better taste & they are an
|
||
|
|
EXCELLENT SOURCE OF PROTEINS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However as for ALL the insects one MUST remember to cook
|
||
|
|
them all in order to get rid of any parasites. Just remove
|
||
|
|
the head, wings and legs & cook them in steam or fry them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also #chenille# are good food sources but AVOID to eat
|
||
|
|
the #chenille a poils# since numerous species of them are toxic.

INSECTS HUNTING: (It buggs me?)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An ancient method for securing already cooked insects,
|
||
|
|
reptiles & small animals is to fire large tracks of
|
||
|
|
grassland and then to comb them for whatever may have been
|
||
|
|
roasted by the fire. A small light at night is all that
|
||
|
|
you need to get you all the insects you need to keep you in
|
||
|
|
good conditions even Rambozoro or Jane.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the weather is too cold for flying insects, kick open
|
||
|
|
some rotten logs or look under stones and get some grubs.
|
||
|
|
They keep bear fat & healthy and will do the same for you
|
||
|
|
dear. Insects can be used as bait to get birds or fishes
|
||
|
|
and that the best time to capture them is in the morning
|
||
|
|
when they are still numbed by the cold night.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ANT'S LEMONADE: (Anyone?)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some aborigines have capitalized on the ants' acidity by
|
||
|
|
mashing them in water sweetened with berries or sap to
|
||
|
|
make a sort of lemonade. The eggs and the young of the ant
|
||
|
|
are also eaten.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
INSECTS & WORMS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Best boiled. Cook and mince them by crushing in a can.
|
||
|
|
More acceptable dried on hot rocks and then ground into a
|
||
|
|
powder with which to enrich soups and stews. The large
|
||
|
|
types of worms particularly are eaten in many countries.
|
||
|
|
So eat them before they eat you?!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GRUBS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The white wood burrowing Larvae of Beetles is usually
|
||
|
|
found in rotten logs. Remove the head, thorax and legs and
|
||
|
|
eat. The eggs ARE EDIBLE but are dry and tasteless.
|
||
|
|
Maggots are good to eat too.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SNAILS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Both aquatic or terrestrial snails are an excellent
|
||
|
|
source of food when obtainable.
