After watching the video, Tellychakkar decided to call up Vineet, who shared, “I am from Kashmir and during rainy seasons, snakes and centipedes would enter the house. So I am not really scared of them.”

He continued, “When I went to Thailand, I ate worms and scorpions. Actually, one has to remove the tail and then eat as its venomous. But in excitement, I ate the entire scorpion. After a while, I started feeling dizzy but that was amazing.”

So how was the taste? “As scorpions are little tough, the upper shell was crunchy while the inside thing was sweet. But I loved the taste,” he said.

What other creatures have you tried eating? “I have tried eating almost everything like centipede, worms, squid, cricket, cockroaches, bugs, and octopus, among others,” he said.

What is on your wish-list now? “I want to try snakes and tarantula.”

Looks like you are apt for fear-based shows…do you any phobias? He answered, “I have no phobia. All these creatures are edible. One can eat them. But yes, you need guts to swallow.”

Any bad experience with the creatures you would like to share with us? “Yes, I would. When I was in Kashmir, I was trying to get hold of a centipede, which bit me hard,” he replied. OUCH.

Well, all we can say is… happy munching!
