There's nothing obsessive about liking the bugs. They are delicious. Sometimes a little horseradish is desirable -  £1.91

Is that how the Warakarawami people of the Amazon basin eat them?  Or am I thinking of the Farquhars of Weybridge?

Allthough the Warakarawami theory is widely accepted amongst bugoligistas, there is a growing body of opinion that the bug cult really began with the Umust-Bejhoakin tribe from the small Welsh village of Creep y Crawly
