You may enjoy some bug like locusts and grasshopper, but I think you have not tried cicada. Cicadas are harmless bug for farmers. Their bodies contain kitin which is one of ingredient for treating cold, cough, flu and some other sick. This kind of food is best provided from Vinh Long. The cicada in Vinh Long is bigger more delicious and fatty than others. In the summer time, you can see there are hundred people catching cicadas in Vinh Long.

It is ideal time due to it is time of cicada’s born and the quality of cicada is great at this time. There are many cooking style of this food, however I think the dried cicada is a best one. It not only is crunchy like peanuts but also fatty like cheese.
