Cicada Taco Anyone?

A poll found one in four Americans would try cicadas at a meal.  One restaurant has already added it to their menu.

A poll found one in four Americans would try cicadas at a meal.  One restaurant has already added it to their menu.  A Mexican bistro in Leesburg, Virginia “Cocina on Market” is serving cicada tacos for a limited time.  The owner says they were already serving grasshopper tacos, so adding cicadas wasn’t a huge leap and that they’re already a hit! They don’t just toss them in taco a shell though.  First, they boil, bake, and pluck their legs and wings off.   Then they sauté them in garlic and top them with serrano chilis, avocado, and radishes in a Verde sauce.
