The Cicadas were last here during the summer of 2004 - In the trillions, and people went nuts.

Well this is 2021 and they will be back. So get ready. Cicada prime time is mid May thru June.

So noisy

Cool!

I'll break out my cicada recipe book.

One of my favorites is a cicada version of Shrimp-n-grits. You can substitute cicadas for shrimp in many recipes.

Charleston Cheese Grits and Blackened Cicadas with Grilled Onions and Peppers

Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp. butter

In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups water to boil. Add cicadas and boil 4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside. Grill peppers and onions until al dente, season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Who the fuck has the time to gather all those ingrediants to make one dish? Fuck that. If I want something with 30 ingredients I'll go to a restaurant.

You are one lazy piece of shit. Get off your ass and be productive.

You know this rumor will be spread.

(Just thought I'd mention it...)


I've eaten bugs once or twice before, long long ago.
All I remember is that they were battered.

I do wonder how THESE critters smell/taste.

Yum, cicada kabobs

I don't ever have bugs because my vagina smells like tunafish left in the sun for a few weeks.

Blanche jr. was a little wee boy when the cicadas were here last.

He got in trouble in kindergarten for throwing them into little girls hair.

Such a charmer -- now days a five year old would be charged with sexual harrassment...

Actually I remember that there were several local eateries in Old Town Alexandria serving fried cicadas back in 2004

Restaurant style cicada soup

I prefer peanut butter and Miracle Whip on my cicada sandwich. The white bread lightly toasted.

Fried cicadas make a really good pizza topping and they go well with mushrooms and extra cheese.

Great snackers for summer social distanced gatherings.

Be mindful to be COVID compliant.

I fear Wetbacks from Central America And sandniggers from Yemen more than cicadas.

That being said, on WTOP News Radio this morning they reported the arrival of the Cicadas are about 7 to 10 days away. Duration of the visit is 1 month.

tAKE THE SOIL TEMP FIRST. THEY DON'T EMERGE UNTIL GROUND TEMP GETS UPTO 64 DEGREES. IF YOU ARE STILL GETTING FREEZING NIGHTS IT AIN'T GOING TO HAPPEN ON TIME.

Let's start distributing those recipes out to the homeless folks on the streets. Good free protein!
