I have very limited knowledge in dealing with these insects. I would appreciate some links to websites with recipes for them.

In addition, I would also take some recommendation on places in the US which sell and ship edible insects.

Thanks for your time and consideration.

    I only tried it once. They have it at my local tiny korean market, granted I'm in a college town with no real asian markets nearby. I stir fried the canned silkworms like I would with meat. They tasted good as long as I'm not looking at it.

    Mind sharing with us WHY you would WANT to eat insects in the first place?

    How to eat silkworms: http://www.ehow.com/how_6789974_eat-silkworms.html (Deep fried. Mmm crunchy.)

    Also, just do a google search. I think you'll get a lot more results that way.

    It's called Entomophagy . There are plenty of books and websites on it, but some are indeed lacking info.

    You're local petshops carry live foods that are far cheaper than specialist shops.

    There are plenty of youtube videos with demos and recipes.
