I'll just leave them for the outdoor critters. Nice-looking recipe, tho, OP.

That may be a welcome source of protein under the new economy.

I think I’ll just stick to popcorn chicken, thank you.
I'm not eating bugs.

Our recipe has worked for years.
Catch, rinse in warm water, quick freeze to kill them and whatever they are carrying, thaw, dredge corn meal, egg and panko mixes, deep fry until golden brown, throw in trash and order a pizza.

No bug dinner for me.
Cicadas are such a fixture in the south that I scarcely notice them any more except to watch for the copperheads.

I hear them 24/7. It's how my tinnitus presents itself. Welcome to my world.
My parents retired to Otto, NC in the 80's about 5 mile north of the state line off 441. Always heard them in the evening whenever I visited and wondered if they hatch every 13 - 17 years why would I hear them every year? Overlapping broods or a different breed?

I've always wondered that, too. Here, we have the same green ones every year. Apparently ours don't know about prime numbers, or can't read a calendar.
The elites who met in Davos recently sure are pushing that.
Ugh You couldn't get me to eat bugs with a pistol to my head.

You vill eat the bugs, you vill have nothing, und you vill like it.
If a lobster ain't an ocean going bug, I don't know what else it is. Pretty tasty no matter what you call it.
I'll pass on the cicadas, however.

About 30 years ago,
I had a gunshop at the time,
I was driving on the highway to go to Turin in northern Italy
where the Italian Colt distributor was located.
I was crossing the Po Valley, the largest cultivated area in Italy.
When I was hit by a huge swarm of locusts
banging on the car.
The whole car was covered by their pulped bodies,
as if someone had spilled hundreds of kilos of disgusting greenish cream.
the car skidded and there was no visibility.
I managed to get to a refueling station and cleaned the glass and radiator.
Maybe the most disgusting thing that happened to me.
