In Cambodia I tried Tarantula, frogs legs and a silk worm.
Tarantula and frogs legs tasted like chicken. probably because they were deep fried. When we were driving a lady came up to the bus and opened her mouth and a LIVE Tarantula crawled out. eeeekk.
The silk worm was horrendous. It has a gooey center i was unprepared for - very peppery. No need to do again. YUCK.
We rode on an Elephant - this was before the mistreatment of these animals came to light in the media - would not even consider doing now. A disgusting trade.
Still, its done and at the time i was so excited.
I still have never come across such a smell as that of the markets.
IT WAS NOT OK.Read more
