"Mama," my seven-year-old son said. "I ate some fried earwigs."
I did a double-take on that one. "What did you say? Fried earwigs?"
"Yeah."
"You're talking earwigs, like the bugs, right?"
My son nodded his head.
"Okay, you better explain where you got fried earwigs."
"My buddy made them."
This is the same buddy who wanted to stick that frog in his pants.
I shook my head. "How exactly did he fry them?"
My son grinned. "When his mom was making pizza, he snuck some on the tray."
Unbelievable. I wonder if any ended up on the pizza.
My son won't be eating over there any time soon!
oh no no no no no!!! Ick ick! And poor earwigs!
ReplyDeleteDisgusting, huh?
DeleteIt wasn't even Schultz this time. Boys!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's something you'd expect from Schultz. Those boys are something else!
DeleteEwww! What are kids thinking when they do these things?! *LOL*
ReplyDeleteApparently, they weren't thinking!
DeleteYuck! Well, at least he told you. LOL
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wish I didn't know about these things. LOL!
DeleteWhy is everybody grossed out? Look at the flip side... it could become a delicacy... like snails, or caviar? LOL
ReplyDeleteWho knows, maybe they were actually good!
DeleteBlah! But I suppose they are goo in protein..haha
ReplyDeleteYeah, probably good survival food if they were ever lost in the wilderness!
Deletehaha that doesn't sound too good to me either :)
ReplyDeleteI'd eat them if my life depended on it, but I have no interest in eating bugs for fun.
DeleteEek! Always funny what little boys do, but I've never come across a fried-earwig-eating boy til now. Wonder what my son will be up to when he's a bit older? :P
