Lost My Nerve At The Oriental Market Today
Advertisements [?]

I went to the big H Market in suburban Denver to get a few things for the weekend. I was wandering the aisles when I came across a display of small yellow cans bearing an illustration that got my attention. The writing on the label was almost entirely in Oriental symbols, but I finally found a description in very small letters: Silk Worm Pupa. Just like the illustration indicated. Now....I've always had an adventurous palate, but I just couldn't go the distance this time. Later I Googled "silk worm pupa, recipes" and quickly came across a few, including a suggestion for using them in a pizza. Have any of you ever sampled these little critters? I'm wondering if they taste like chicken. And I'm also starting to regret not bringing a can of them home, just to see the look on my wife's face.....
