101 Locust Recipes...

...they taste like chicken! (Only the drumsticks are smaller.)

People have been touting "the perfect food" for a long time. Green smoothies (I almost fell for that one), bananas, not eating--fasting (from a health standpoint) was supposed to be perfect in that it cured everything; it was even supposed to push fillings out as new enamel grew!

Ezekiel bread is one of these. I've read it's the perfect food because Ezekiel survived on it alone for 390 days (plus another 40 later) during a famine, complete proteins involved, all that. If he could do it then, we should do it now! is the reasoning. No need to ponder the fact that it was during a famine, a special circumstance, that it was cooked over cow dung, and that there are many gluten-intolerant people out there who could definitely not eat it.

No, instead let's cash in on this and offer you diets straight from the Bible! We started with the locusts above:
