This afternoon as we were digging out the backyard, we uncovered a live grub. (This was a better find than yesterday's small, dead worm.) I picked it up and showed it to Bug, who recoiled and declared that he didn't want to see or touch it because it was "too yucky".
I commented that some people eat grubs. Bug thought this was fascinating and asked if I could cook the grub for him.
Me: "You don't want to touch it because it's too yucky, but you want to eat it?"
Bug: "I want to touch it with my mouth."
Grubs were NOT on the menu for today... (Though I did find a decent sounding recipe should it come up again. The idea kind of turns my stomach, but I'd try it if my kids really wanted to.)
