In the most off all contries in the world, grashopper are being the most enemies for farmer and agro-industries. They eat leaf of plant one by one. Greedy, gathered and no mercy. It caused bad harvesting. Farmer usually uses insectiside to kill grasshopper.
But, some people in Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia have a new habit against grashopper. They catch, clean, season and fries it and then grasshopper being snack in the afternoon. The taste as same as shrimp, very delicious and crispy. Better than any cake and biscuit.
The protein in grasshopper are very high, awesome people who has alergi with highly protein restricted to eat it. In the morning, people hunt grasshopper in the forest and field, in noon will has 5-6 kilograms. Some eat eat themself, and the other sell it for $1,5/kilos.
With tea and coffe, grashopper snack are being good and unique combination in the happy afternoon.
Wanna try it ?

This isn't really a news story, but it does relate to an earlier story posted on the site.

 Sounds delicious but not for vegetarians. We have lots of them in the UK although I had never considered eating them. I am sure that the way food prices are rising there are some people who may want to try them.They are quite hard to catch, is there a technique?
