I've had crickets. As a snack, they're not bad honestly with the crunch. Mine had a BBQ flavor added

I think larvae are usually pretty meaty

but yeah, there's a reason why shrimp and lobster are so much more popular than insects.

I've tried them without flavoring just fried and they resemble a lot that crispy layer of connective tissue that you get on ribs. So BBQ is probably a great pairing with that.

At that point just eat popcorn, you're mostly eating it as a delivery device for the added sauces/spices.

Pretty sure shellfish are pretty meaty in comparison. They are also often not very fussy over what you feed them.

Could say that about a lot of things. Rice is a delivery device for soy sauce
