Somehow, based on what I have heard, I think you have methods of persuasion that you are overlooking. At the very least, he is ALWAYS asking for boob pictures...!

I was given chocolate covered crickets as a present once. They tasted like chocolate covered burnt popcorn.

I would eat one, except the nutritional stats are horrible! 280 calories, 10 grams protein, 28-30 grams carbs, 14 grams sugar.

A Mars bar, by contrast has only 234 calories, 4 grams protein, 31 carbs, and 26 grams sugar.

Since they both appear to be candy bars, I pick the Mars bar!

Cricket flour? Not so crunchy that! Now, if it had whole crickets baked in, that would be a whole different story. Those would be like little joyful crunchy nuggets, like the almonds in a mars bar!

OMG no thank you! Call me crazy, I love a lot of weird food, including raw fish (sushi) and dried squid (cuddle fish jerky) but I draw the line at bugs. Maybe it's seeing my cats crunch them when they get in the house or maybe my intense fear and dislike of all bugs and spiders but this would never be okay with me.
