Fried Crickets in Cambodia

IMG_4500

Fancy a snack in Cambodia? Look no further than fried crickets, extremely popular as a snack on bus journies. I remember after one bus trip the floor was covered with crunchy cricket remains. I tried some whilst at Angkor Wat, they really are discusting, bitter and greasy. Urgh, makes feel sick just thinking about them!

    Ooph. Yeah I have full respect for different types of food but my appreciation stops short of actually trying this stuff out. :p

    That picture gives me the heebies…I have eaten “a” fried cricket, but I don’t know if I could handle an entire bag of them. Have you tried chocolate covered cricket? Not bad….

    • About Ben’s Backpacking Travel Blog

      The main aim of this travel blog is to share travel experiences and hopefully inspire others to travel. When researching my own travels I always focus on the photos and with that in mind I've tried to place an emphasis on travel photos of my favourite destinations. I've also tried to focus on those places to visit and things to do that are slightly off the beaten track of the normal backpacking trip.

      My blog covers past experiences backpacking around the world and my current travels where so far I've been lucky enough to travel in the South Pacific, Australasia, South East Asia, Europe, North America and South America.

      Don’t forget to pick up holiday insurance before you go! InsureandGo provide a wide range of policies including backpacker travel insurance, available at competitive prices.
