Actually I've picked asparagus growing wild in Frederick County.

I picked a mess of fiddleheads last month.
The recipes I saw for cicada mostly involved deep fried and corn batter. Let's face it, it could be an eraser (clam strips anyone?) and it would taste great battered and deep fried.
Like escargot - if you wanna dwell on those, they're pretty gross. But smothered in garlic and butter - oh yeah, baby!

oh, I have eaten things a lot of people won't. (comes from my ex-Fiancee being from Mainland China) but I draw the line at bugs.. that also includes crustations.. because face it.. a lobster is nothing but a giant cockroach. We even call them "Sea bugs"

Sorry, I draw the line on things that crawl or have more than four legs.
Seafood is the only exception.

Durian, jellyfish....I've tried odd stuff, just to say I've done it. None of it has become a dietary staple.

Durian is delicious, but I can totally see where the hate for it comes from in North America. Try it in Indonesia or Malaysia where it actually grows and your mind will be blown.
It still stinks like all hell though.

The GF lives just outside Williamsburg Va. Those things have been driving me nuts with the noise. Although her dog loves to eat them.
