Product description

In their normal watery environment, Giant Waterbugs eat pond animals, capturing their prey with their front legs and sucking out the unfortunate’s body fluids. Now, these bug suckers are BIG (2-3 inches) and due to their sheer size, they’re not for the faint-hearted. You can eat the whole insect but if you’re not feeling so brave remove it’s wings prior to consuming!

WARNING! Insects may cause an allergic reaction to those who are allergic to, for example, dust mites or shrimp. Food allergens are proteins. Sensitization to insect proteins is possible, just like to any other food proteins. The proteins that insects contain are similar to the proteins of e.g. crustaceans and mollusks. Thus persons who are allergic to prawns, for example, may have an allergic reaction from insect food.

OBS! Man kan vara allergisk mot insektmat. Matallergenerna är proteiner. Man kan bli allergisk mot insektproteiner på samma sätt som mot andra proteiner i maten. Proteinerna i insekter är jämförbara med proteinerna i t.ex. skaldjur och blötdjur. Därför kan en person som är allergisk mot t.ex. räkor få en allergisk reaktion av insektmat.
