Hi.

I'm a vegetarian and I was wondering about the insect thing, because they're a good source of nutrition but are still living creatures. I think it's ultimately a matter of personal choice, because some people call themselves vegetarian but eat fish and other such things. Most people prefer not to get too technical with the terms, and often people have their own set of rules for their non-animal diets...

Anyways, I took an entomology (study of insects) class and it was very cool. I learned that honey is actually bee saliva. I thought that was a pretty neat fact. It's not just some liquid they have a special body part to produce.

Pretty tasty spit those four-winged striped bugs have, eh?
