COLUMBIA, S.C. — To eat or not to eat cicadas? That is the question. Some restaurants have added cicada-themed foods to their menus, but are the hibernating insects safe to eat?
“Native Americans certainly had insects, including cicadas, as a big part of their diet," Eric Benson,professor at Clemson University, said."And insects, in general, are high in protein, low in fat.” “Number one, they can have bacterial contamination as well, so they can be dirty, so to speak," Michels said."But then they’re living underground, and they’re feeding off the tree, and they can have environmental contaminations.”
“Certainly, if I were to eat a cicada, I would choose to eat them when they’re in what we call the teneral state or when they’ve just molted, and they’re still soft," Benson said."They don’t have the wings fully developed, and I wouldn’t eat a cicada raw; I would cook it.”
