You may very well be right. I've always felt the same way about acorns. For the amount of food produced by one good size oak tree, and the fact that you don't have to put any work into it at all for them to produce it, it seems like an ideal food source.
Believe it or not I had a guy at work last night randomly bring up the fact that he eats bugs. We had a conversation about grasshoppers as well. I'm telling you guys, this is the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a huge new pop culture phenomena!
Really all marketing and fads is based on the ability to convince people that something is cool or needed. It's all about perception of reality. If you could start a restaurant and get a marketing campaign that made bugs the new cool thing, you would be set!
Think Red Lobsters crab fest, only with grasshoppers.
