What do you think changed?

Skyview01:
I remember when when i was young, we would fill a bucket with water and place outside to collect these insects.

They usually would fly around the electric lights.

In Anambra, we call it Akuwanmili.

Its been more than 30years since I had this delicious roasted insects. Delicious for us as kids.

Now, my wife just bought this roasted insects and going down memory lane, I decided to take two spoons and could not continue.

Have you had this before? What name do you call it in your local dialect?

Skyview01:
My taste buds for one. I can't even eat bushmeat or any meat I cannot identify. After COVID-19 and lockdowns and Ebola breakout in some African countries, I began to scrutinize what I eat very closely. My wife forced this on me.

Also, the availability of good food. I have eaten lots of good food that my palate will naturally reject any bad food thanks to my wife. Lol

My elder brother can eat anything. When we were small, He caught and roasted crickets. He said it was delicious for me to take a bite, It was like biting on a cockroach I feel disgusted till today.

Oloki:
Is this not flying termite? If yes, it is called esusu in Yoruba and very proteinous.

mariahAngel:
Your wife must have a very traditional palate.


Hahahahaha

Skyview01:
She does. She just imported traditional fufu from Nigeria and she is hoarding it like gold.

She only gave me one wrap and the rest na semo.

Sanguine:
Yeah, these flying termites. They come in their droves especially after it rains. Sprinkle some salt and fry. I enjoy it, always.
Some people eat these raw even. They say it is medicinal.

Skyview01:
Raw? Ewww!

can't eat raw even at a gun point. lol
