Default "Why not eat insects?" - was Which tree and where?

'edible but taste varies', the site says. So I looked in my book (Usher:
'Plants used by man') which says 'the eskimos eat the fruit mixed with
seal oil' .. so clearly, it all depends on how you serve them!


When I read that a floavour came into my mouth which I realised was linseed
oil.

I've no idea what seal oil tastes like but am willing to try. I'm sure it's
nothing like linseed.
