Wasn't too bad (I had had a few Corona's so ...) I wouldn't order again but I had to try it

Nope!
I'll eat most meat, but nothing with more than four legs, and nothing without a spine
A wanker AND a pansy apparently.
Oh, and a wimp, and 'not a real man'.

It would be the Mexican flag for me.

Protein from insects will in the future be the norm according to a food scientist I heard on the TV. I was only half-listening but they took the insect grubs, dried and ground them and made a bread out of the 'flour'. The interviewer tried the bread and said it, er, tasted like bread.

The best thing since sliced grub?

When in France do like the French so I've eaten garden snails that had the same consistency as whelks and frog legs that tasted like greasy chicken.

To be honest, I didn't really enjoy the meal but I had to have a go. Cost me a fortune as well as we were eating in a restaurant off the Tuileries.

I ate snails once in Boulogne. I had some prawns as well.

I also had a bout of Napoleon's revenge. Cleared me out quicker than that stuff you drink before a colonoscopy.
I once had a whim and I had to obey it
To buy a French Horn in a second-hand shop;
I polished it up and I started to play it
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop.

Quorn is pure protein and can look like meat.

I would have to be more than drunk to try Grasshoppers.
How do you turn off signatures?
