Guest guest Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Good Enough for John the BaptistBy Chet Dayhttp://chetday.comToday's featured article was inspired by a reader who had a beef with me after I shared the URL for a site with recipesfor fried grasshoppers:http://snipurl.com/jnnj No, I'm not kidding.Although I've not yet worked up sufficient curiosity tomunch on insects, I do know a few natural health seekerswho enjoy eating grasshoppers.I'm told grasshoppers are especially tasty when coated with a nice chocolate covering.John the Baptist, of course, liked his grasshoppers dippedin honey.And let us not forget Po Campo of " Lonesome Dove " who friedup a mess of tasty grasshoppers every morning for Gus and Captain Call's cattle drive to Montana.Grasshoppers, by the way, are an excellent source of protein.Anyway, the reader who scolded me about the grasshopperrecipes tickled my funny bone, so I thought you might enjoy reading a sample of the kind of letters that keep mechuckling in the CasaDay editorial chair: Chet, shame on you passing on this info... grasshoppers are good insects... don't encourage idiots to fry them... there are enuf sickos out there who torture critters... Yes, I'm serious... no one needs to eat grasshoppers as food is not scarce and how many folks get lost in the wild? Gimme a break!My own love for critters aside, this sort of feedback is all part of being an editor who monitors the naturalhealth circus.-- Diana Gonzalez Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. -Unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
