#supportivemuch

If you're barfy, you might want to skip this post. 😊✌ #Silkworm 🐛 (that's the closest emoji to a silkworm I could find 😆 sareh) I am not an adventurous eater. Although some of my favorite dishes might be categorized by most as exotic food (paklay, dinuguan, papaitan, bopis---I swear I'm not aswang, entrails just entice me 😂😂😂) and some even illegal *cough-sanga-cough*, I never would have imagined myself munching on creatures that are perhaps meant to munch on me when I'm gone. (Ok, I know that's not accurate but you get my point). But my sister and brother-in-law are the most persuasive people on earth I know (Kuya sam just kept showing off these tiny things as I took a snap of 'em. #supportivemuch haha) and they got me to finish a cup of this steamed Silkworms. Forget about #chichaworm, this is the real deal. Hahaha😂😂 and since I ate it, I thought I might as well make the most out of the experience and---welll-- enjoy it. It tastes earthy, like peanuts but less sweet (my kind way of saying it tasted like soil.haha) Texture is soft as it was boiled/steamed, much like soaked corn kernels. It also doesn't have a repugnant smell; smelled natural even. It's an acquired taste really (much like beer, eh? Haha) Once you get past the fact that it's a crawling worm that looks like a cockroach (hehe), you'll come to see that it's not that bad (Seriously, it's not. I might have upchucked a little. But it's ok. Hahaha) Anyway, it's another must-try. ❤ #food #exoticfood #southkoreafood #southkorea #koreanfood #worm #foodbloggers #foodblog #foodoftheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/B0OAWnVA28Y/?igshid=m47zamkzptdg
