There's a couple in Japan that makes beautiful sushi rolls made out of dead insects. Tony McNicol visited them, but he doesn't say whether he tried one or not. Was it yummy Tony? Do tell.

In 2008, Chronicle published my book: Urawaza: Secret Everyday Tips and Tricks from Japan.
I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!

To my shame, I didn’t try anything! I’ve eaten locusts up in the mountains before (a bit like shrimps fried in soy sauce). Wasp larvae were good too (jelly beans).
Couldn’t quite summon the courage this time. Or maybe it was because I’d just seen him playing with the cockroachs and the spider being deep fried alive.
