Preparing the Insects for Use
Before you begin whipping up delicious insect meals, you must take some precautions: Always kill the larvae by freezing them alive. About 48 hours is sufficient. You can keep them in the freezer for a few months if they are properly wrapped in airtight bags or containers.

Insects can deteriorate quickly, just like meat that is left out on a counter. Always keep them in the freezer until you are ready to use them. It is also a good idea to rinse them in running water before you cook them.

Never eat any insects of doubtful quality (rotten smell, unusual color, etc.). If in doubt, DON'T.

OMFG....I'm gonna hurl.....damn that's NASTY!

I've had mealworm dip for chips..it's not bad at all.

At Purdue every year they have the "Bug Bowl" which is well...bug stuff, inluding food.
