crunchy and delicious!
Crunchy food is firm and makes a loud noise when it is eaten.
Think and share
2. If not, would you ever eat an insect Why or why not
I think I could eat one. I wouldn’t mind the crunchy legs,
but I can’t even imagine the squishy(soft) middles.

Think and share
I once ate a fried cockroach.
I started to eat the legs and they
were OK, but the wings just moved too much when I bit
into them. It freaked me out (frightened me)! Strange
food has an unusual texture (质感), colour, or taste that
not everyone is used to.
Work in groups to investigate the unique food culture of a different region or country and then create a poster.
