Deep Fried Cicadas?
I won't be looking for cicadas even if I *did* own a deep-fryer. But
the 17-year critters are returning again. I read this in another blurb from Smithsonian mag: http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/food...0414-Weekender Tiny URL: http://tinyurl.com/c45kgtp "Think of them like “land shellfish.” Like shrimp, lobster and crabs, cicadas are anthropods. Gaye L. Williams, an entomologist from the Maryland Department of Agriculture told the Baltimore Sun: “They’re in the same animal group as shrimp and crabs, and people don’t think twice about that.” (If you’re allergic to shellfish, exercise caution when experimenting with cicadas)." Um, if I say "pass the cicadas" what I'll mean is "no thanks, I'll pass!" Jill |
