I've eaten some of the common (more common?) insects - namely crickets, which are okay, and mealworms, which are delicious. I aspire to try silkworms some day. May have to add tarantulas to the list. :)
In grasshopper season, it would be hard to starve around here. (Yeah they're fast and they fly. They're also big and not particularly perceptive or smart, and they easily get caught in the fabric I use to shade my garden. I can only imagine how many I could catch with a net and some patience.)
And now I'm thinking about a hemolymph-based jelly dish for a fictional culture...
