Yes but when you take those two or three small bites of the steak, at least you know that when it was alive it would never bite you. Not so for the alligator on a stick! ________________________________ From: Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 9:17 PM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Worms,grubs,slugs, ans snails are fair game On 9/15/11, Joe Bauman <josephmbauman@yahoo.com> wrote:
It's a bit of a stretch to call these maggots -- I recognized them immediately as meal worms. I think of maggots as the offspring of flies, while these grubs are from beetles.
So are you implying that they are deliberately going for shock value by claiming them as "maggots", or do you think it ignorance on their part? Either way, I haven't descended quite far enough to go for insect protien, as noble as that may be. Kelly and I were at the fair Wednesday night. We wanted the alligator-on-a-stick, until we saw the price. No thanks, I wouldn't pay that price for bacon-wrapped Fillet Mignon if it was only two or three small bites. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php
