Eating Woodlice, AKA Roly Poly

My list of eaten bugs got bigger today.  I ate about a dozen Roly Poly's after boiling them in water in a small aluminum dish over a propane torch.  They smell like seafood cooking, probably because they are actually land dwelling crustaceans and not insects.  The flavor reminded me of sweet crab meat or crayfish.  I'm really getting into eating bugs!  Here's an article with recipe and video.
