I've watched a few cooking shows, and the one taboo thing that always comes up as a surprisingly good dish is bugs. My curiosity has been piqued, and until my dad can take me up to Chicago to check out some exotic food places, I'm kind of on my own on how to try to eat some bugs. My grandpa suggested I look online to try and find some bug providers, but I'm at a loss. Finding a place that sells bugs for cooking is hard. Go figure. XD

Specifically, I'm interested in scorpions, spiders, grasshoppers, crickets, and maybe some grubs.
 
I don't know of any restaurants in Chicago that serve bugs. Please leave the scorpions alone ;-<. As for the others, you could find crickets and mealworms at pet stores, grubs and stuff like that try fishing supply stores. I know they carry different types of them.....
