    I actually think I read they are pretty high protein
    I'd have to be really f'ing hungry to do it but pretty sure in a survival situation your instincts take over and you'll eat just about anything

    Like the explorers of yore that would eat their boots

    Brings new meaning to bootlicking!

    Casu marzu is believed to be an aphrodisiac by Sardinians. Because the larvae in the cheese can launch themselves for distances up to 15 centimetres (6 in) when disturbed, diners hold their hands above the sandwich to prevent the maggots from leaping. Some who eat the cheese prefer not to ingest the maggots. Those who do not wish to do so place the cheese in a sealed paper bag. The maggots, starved for oxygen, writhe and jump in the bag, creating a "pitter-patter" sound. When the sounds subside, the maggots are dead and the cheese can be eaten.

    British sailors did for years, at least weevil, and Britannia ruled the world.

    I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...

    I think preferably your own open wound that is festering- thus completing the circle as you dine on them as they dine on you

    Funny you should mention crickets. My wife and my son are embarking on a project to raise some to eat as part of his home schooling. Yech.
    I see hydraulic turtles.

    I ate grilled Sago Grubs in the southwestern rainforest of Papua. They tasted really good, like bratwurst, with a creamy center.

    The creamy center was a little tough to handle though.

    Oddly enough maggots are actually a really good thing to put on an open festering wound. They eat all the necrotic flesh and lower thee chance of gangrene and scar tissue formation significantly - far better than cutting off the flesh. The main reason they're not used more is it's "ooogy" and supposedly the thought/feeling drives people crazy.

    I had heard about that too and it makes me want to gag thinking about it -although I do find it intriguing when nature solves it's own issues like that. I'd do it if necessary

    I've hated maggots since that movie Lost Boys had that maggot/white rice scene though- guh

    I'm surprised nobody has asked for clarification from the OP on whether he meant a bunch of us ski wannabe's hanging out in front of computers or actual larva of houseflies
