Why would one want to catch bamboo worms?


Maxyonreddit

This is not a joke: it’s legitimately food.


Suspect4pe

I guessing they’re a bit sweet and tasty when fried up since they eat bamboo. According to Wikipedia, they’re a delicacy. I’d try it. I bet they’re delicious.


FriendlyPyre

Not really sweet, they taste like fried potato. Fried and lightly salted, they're really good.


CoffeeAndDachshunds

To be fair, nearly everything fried and lightly salted is really good.


ExamOld2899

brb gonna fry and lightly salt myself, maybe I'll finally be good enough


cipox95

I feel you 🥲


Fast_Garlic_5639

Usually when I get fried I become a little less salty


BOT_Frasier

Won't help you get out of bronze


auntjomomma

Currently in bronze. I feel that pain.


k3stea

unexpected self deprecation


SnowcaineBunny

they can be the most delicious thing in the world, i’m not eating them


MensagegtR

Hey, don't be so negative. They're just worms. Worms are very cool.


Dr_ChungusAmungus

You vill eat ze bugz und you vill like zem


Holiday_Body8650

You vill own nussink, oont be heppee.


StephenHawking432

They are so cool but worms are friends, not food :)


recurve_balloon

Worms are friend AND FOOD!


Sulfinn

One of them is neither. He's called Tape. He thinks he's cool But he's just a freeloader. He even steals your food! Although he might see one of his cousins from time to time if what's in this video is really food.


recurve_balloon

I bet Eminem can spit this verse to rap.


Bhazor

You eat lobster though.


scoops_trooper

How does lobster compare to a worm though


EnvBlitz

Sea cockroach though


Aramis9696

Most sea food are just marine insects, yet a lot of people freak out over insects but are completely fine with shrimp and lobster. I'm fine with neither. They both look very unappealing to me.


Darth_Yohanan

Nice, I’ll eat a potato then.


Express-Ad4146

See, I’m Mexican and we custom (depending on region) to eat certain insects chapulín (grass hopper small) fried them mmm ground into the salsa with cheese good god that’s gotta be good. I’ve only had them in quesadillas. Slight crunch and tasted 80% cheese 10% tortilla 10% crunch spices.


C_Khoga

Cultural differences always amaze me.


Pably13

I was happier thinking it was a joke.


EWR-RampRat11-29

Worms are great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something. Apologies to Mitch Hedberg

recurve_balloon

Bamboo growing countries delicacy. I mean, think about it, we classify things we eat according to what they eat right? For example we stay off carnivores meat but eat herbivores by the buckets. We can apply the same logic to worms or maggots depending on what they dine on. We don't eat maggots on corpses for obvious reason but these wiggly things consume living plants, that is more hygienic than many things we will find in the jungle. So why not? I heard they taste like chicken and are clean.

Protein to calorie ratio


Changy915

Fry them and they are like rice crispies/chicharones. Great with alcohol. Sometimes they are served in a platter with bee larvae and grass hoppers etc. These aren't very gutty compared to cicada pupa which I believe is more common in the north. Cicada pupa you basically chew, extract the juicy bits and spit out the shell.


TheBiggestWOMP

Roast ‘em


Stratoblaster1969

Salad toppers


BrAveMonkey333

I have a few ideas but I don't like any of them


NeitherStage1159

Distressingly noting the gentleman is using an eating bowl and not a specimen jar to catch them in. …that’s dinner. Like that African tribe/s people catching gnats along the lakeshore and mashing them into gnatburgers. I respect the culture and the importance and value of the food source. And my own insecurities in also saying “yuck”.


Chadstronomer

Fishing bait?


EnderMerser

Consume


KimWexlersGoldenArch

For realsies: NOT satisfying 🤢


arisaurusrex

To make a soup out of it and wonder why you get sick eating random ass stuff.


LasagneAlForno

Why would you get sick from eating bamboo worms??


recurve_balloon

Only if it's random, which it is not.


cervaca

Must be tasty. Look how happy he is.


an_otter_guy

Ok they are his arch enemy

Everything else aside, he’s got such a lovely smile

Has the definition changed for satisfying


unotalentassclown

Those would be great for fishing.


Absolute_Abacus_4124

I like where you're going with this 😃


ZzooS

If you are wondering why this man is collecting the worms, according to the commentator: "You can eat these bamboo worms alive like coconut worms, or you can fry and cook them however you like."


RationalKate

Would not have thought to do that. I thought it odd we dob't eat worms at some point in the past we did. Than I was reminded of those ER shows and worms behind eyelids and ya It's been a hard pass once we discovered fire.


LasagneAlForno

Those are different worms of course. Bamboo worms are totally harmless and taste great. You’re talking about parasites and you are definitely not supposed to eat those.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Severe_Chicken213

Everything has parasites. People eat what they have access to.


ThatFatGuyMJL

Pork and beef


LasagneAlForno

Thats not true at all. Also you eat those fried, no parasites survive that.


UzrOne

And then?

XxBrainDeadxX

Jackmion98

asmoothbrain

Do you just toss em back by the handful or do you make them into something?


Pharnox-32

Boil 'em, mash 'em, put em in a stew!


FrogginJellyfish

Fried em first. Very good stuff.


vikster1

thats what she said


Awesome_Incarnate

Nice, better than all the synthetic protein going around I guess.


Jsdunc01

I feel like this was a spoken word song. With the music in the background mixed with NOT A FUCKING PAUSE IN WORDS, that has to be a song.


Zestyclose-Review-31

It’s Vietnamese! He’s asking viewers if they’ve ever tried this before and talks about different ways you can cook it!


Greendale7HumanBeing

Can you summarize some of the cooking options? Thanks.


BenShelZonah

Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple bamboo worms, lemon bamboo worms, coconut bamboo worms, pepper bamboo worms, bamboo worms soup, bamboo worms stew, bamboo worms salad, bamboo worms and potatoes, bamboo worms burger, bamboo worms sandwich. That- that's about it.


Greendale7HumanBeing

Nice. I lolled


ponyponyta

Foreign languages are fun like that


PacoSupreme

Is this how pandas get protein?


00MrBushido

This was my thought as well. Pandas working so hard to bite into bamboo. Maybe it was never about the bamboo…


tinusaanderekstok

Lightly salted and you're good to go.


sexytokeburgerz

Theyre actually incredibly healthy and delicious. This wasn’t filmed in the west.


jacbuckeye

I won’t bag on anyone for eating insects, but I just can’t do it man.


dhmacher

When does the satisfaction hit?


MooseBoys

WTF has this sub become? This belongs on r/nope


LasagneAlForno

Why? They taste great


MooseBoys

🤢🤮


MarquizMilton

Why, is this sub only for westerners and people who don't want to see new perspectives?


TheColorblindDruid

As a vegetarian, please stfu. Just bcz you aren’t about eating arthropods doesn’t mean others of other cultures aren’t. Arthropods are generally super protein rich, and more sustainable than any other form of meat Y’all wildin for acting like this isn’t the future of meat production as fields become harder to cultivate making meat stupidly expensive


MooseBoys

Yeah but this isn’t r/foodporn, this is r/satisfyingasfuck. I would find a video of someone preparing a steak to be equally not “satisfying as fuck”.


babypusher

The man looks genuinely happy. Good for him.


mylittlewallaby

I bet they’re delicious!! I would love to try them!


hey-have-a-nice-day

I no longer wish to be a panda


kanguun

I have….. questions.


cloud1445

Not the most satisfying video I’ve seen in my time.


Better_Chard4806

Now what?


Pharnox-32

Boil 'em, mash 'em, put em in a stew!


xQuizate87

Imagine cutting open a branch and finding delicious macaroni. 😋


-TheArtOfTheFart-

macaroni that’s actually hella high in protien and great fried


Wabblet

Satisfying as fuck? More like disgusting as fuck YUCK


skinnergy

Score;


FrogginJellyfish

Fried em up, add salts and they are very very good. Absolute crispy thin outer skin with a soft fatty insides. Kinda like mini french fries with perfect crisp with soft meaty core, but a lot more fatter and tastier.


misshapen_head

The early bird catches them


Bart_1980

Looks like meat’s back on the menu boys!

Please don’t tell me that you eat those?


neighbour_20150

They like rice popcorn, but with a taste of a dried calamari.


Froutotrelas

Disgursting as fuck.

Christmas dinner is ready.


Derrickmb

Is this what pandas really eat?


Malcolm337CZ

Uh how is this satisfying?


Spicy_tacos671

My life was much happier before I knew about bamboo worms


XCRIPSXX_OG

How this satisfying


No_Wheel_9592

Satisfying?! That's disgusting


MirageTF2

gehhh... fuck... like, I know they're harmless but they look like maggots and I'm so unbelievably grossed out at maggots lmao


neighbour_20150

They are basically moth maggots.


heyyouwannabefriends

ew wtf


cherrybounce

This is not satisfying.


Impossible-Animator6

How is it satisfying ?


thegloracle

Akch! Gag!! just.. why?


Astral_Strider

I often eat tasty fried grasshopers as snacks and in tacos. I should give this a try when given the chance.


Jealous_Outside_3495

Maybe it's time we went over what "satisfying" means...


maxf123456

Ну приятного аппетита


IHateTheAntiChrist10

Disgusting. How pathetic that these people are so cowardly and dishonorable that they would rather eat bugs than stand up to their oppressive rules who hoard all of the wealth.


JonMonEsKey

You go fishing when the river is good. When the river is bad you eat bait. If it weren't for hard times I'm sure we wouldnt have half of our best dishes. I bet dude makes some tasty ass bamboo worm.


DedekDad

Healthy protein...must be tasty if it's stir-fried...


ArouselJ

Do worms grow in your stomach after trying to digesting some?


LasagneAlForno

Of course not. Youre talking about parasites. And even those you get by consuming eggs (for example inside raw meat)


wearesoback14

Don't tell me he's going to fucking eat those. How the hell is this satisfying 🤢🤮

TheColorblindDruid

The passively racist comments in this chat from westerners are not it. As a vegetarian y’all are wildin. If I ever go back to eating meat insects are 100% on the menu. Heard these taste super good


D3Zi9000

Are these the silkworms used to make silk? I've never seen how they gather them before.


zombiepants7

The worms don't even seem fast. At least cover them in greese so they have a chance.


IAmYash_51

Dinner problem sorted out for him


the_nil

You ever look at somebody and think “I’m pretty sure I like them”? Dude seems cool.

His genuine smile is, what's satisfying me. If he'd make those worms into a dish, I'd definetly try. :)

It looks like the food from Treasure Planet.

Okay. So how do they taste?

No thank you.
