Barry’s Witchetty Grub Bushtucker Trials

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]From humble beginnings of refusing to eat anything but tomato soup and sausage rolls, I’ve grown to love most foods (except cucumber, I will never like that). Part of our journey this year has been to try interesting new foods, and we particularly loved the food of Vietnam. Things were about to change though, when on only my second day in Australia, I ticked something off my culinary hit list which had been there for some time…Witchetty Grub! And then I attempted to crack a whip…don’t laugh…

My thoughts? The Witchetty Grub was…crunchy in parts, although I put that down to eating the head as well. I was only told eating the head was optional afterwards. It felt like an overcooked big prawn, only without any of the nice flavour that goes with it. As for the whip, well let’s just say I won’t be cattle rustling anytime soon![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
