I probably will lose my appetite if i see that, just my opinion... But then if I take that away from my eyes... wouldn't be a problem to eat it.

I agree with because I hate bugs and especially spiders but I do know people who take the time to nicely place spiders on a tree outside than smash the shit out of them

Ever eaten lobster sashimi or live Spot Prawns in a Japanese restaurant? It's still alive while you're eating it. No big deal.

I've had "Ikizukuri" in Japan, where a live fish is filleted and the sashimi prepared in front of you. The mouth is still moving.

Is it wrong that I actually kind drooled when I was watching her eat the meat?

I've actually had it before at that same place, it taste like chicken. I missed out on the place that serves Raw Chicken though.

I'll try anything once, as long as it's served properly. The restaurant in that video was featured on a popular TV show on the Food Network so they are credible enough for me.

I wouldn't eat a BBQ rat at some random dirty street vendor in China though.

PEOPLE can blink involuntarily. I'm not expert on frog biology but I'd assume they can as well. It's a muscle reflex.

It's dead.

Yes... it's not so much blinking as nerves firing randomly.

I am pretty sure, the frog is DEAD. This is quite common, i'm very surprised you guys find it shocking. They usually put some sort of seasoning over it which contain salt and makes the muscles contract thus making it seem like it's alive.

Eating frogs is like eating other meats, we just aren't accustomed to it here.

Would you say it is comparable to chicken or better in terms of nutritional value?

They eat bugs, right? Bugs are high in protein. So frogs = high in protein..?
