I've eaten --cricket-- grasshopper tacos at a restaurant in Washington, DC. The crunchy texture was honestly great. My only complaint was that the spice/sauce they used to prepare them was too salty. I think with a more restrained spice blend, it would be something I'd be happy to eat on the regular.
Edit: I was mistaken. They're grasshoppers, and apparently the saltiness is part of their natural flavor.

I ate fried grasshoppers at a place in DC years ago and I could never remember the name! Thank you!!
grasshopper tacos absolutely slap. there's nothing else with that unique balance of chewiness to crunch. me gusta :]
didn't know they were inherently salty. that's a neat fact
