A few weeks ago, feeling adventurous, a few coworkers and I journeyed to midtown New York to try the grasshopper tacos at a Mexican restaurant.

When mine arrived, I fearfully picked up a grasshopper and brought it to my tongue...

...and had to restrain myself from gobbling the rest up by the fistful.

In less than a second, my opinion of grasshoppers had gone from "creepy" to "tasty." I expect most others won't be much harder to convince.
