Insect eating delight Thailand
By Thai-Eyes | February 15, 2010
Eating insects is a delight for people in many Asian countries, so in Thailand,
while foreigners (farangs) screw up their noses and are thinking,
that´s just disgusting. In the end it´s just a point of view.
You´ll believe us or not, Thai people are crazy for insects
and while we went to the Chiang Mai Flower Festival 2010
our photographer Nat discovered this insect street vendor.
He was begging me for a few fried crickets, bugs, worms and caterpillars
and told me, that after this little snack his photographic skills will improve a lot.
What kind of a chance I would have had…
I bought a selection of the most mouthwatering, fried insects
and earned a big smile.
After his little insect snack, we went on with our work
and Nat was not cheating me, he could do a lot of outstanding photographies.
Does that mean, that insect eating improves Your photographic skills…?
I´m not sure, but insects are very high in protein.
