I mean, I wouldn't eat OLD road kill, but if I hit a deer and knew how to prep it, sure, why not? But insects? I could be convinced (esp. after someone guided me), but on gut reaction... too crunchy!

More specifically, do larvae count? When you're drinking a lot of foul rice-wine, larvae no longer taste so gross. But what I find interesting is that you would eat <i>roadkill</i> before something so innocent as a chocolate-covered grasshopper? What counts for whole insects? More specifically, do larvae count?

The next time you're in NYC, get a friend to buddy pass you into the Park Slope Co-Op -- I once got some saffron there very, very cheaply! And I have used a shallow-ish wok for paella to great success, too. This party has probably already happened, but I’m behind on my blog reading, so here goes!

That might almost make a rice cooker worth it! I make oatmeal every week on Sunday and package it up for the week with some fruit tossed in. Dude! That might almost make a rice cooker worth it!

I keep telling myself that if paella is considered a "folk food," it must be the kind of thing that lets a cook have a little wiggle room for error, so I will hopefully be ok. ~Sarah ps. Thanks especially for the shaws/saffron tip! Gillis–
