Restaurant Offers Pizza With Cicadas!

This is beyond disgusting. People have been warned to not eat the Cicadas that have swarmed cities around the world. An Ohio restaurant didn't get that memo as a The Pizza Bandit Restaurant announced they plan to offer a cicada pizza. The pizza is topped with cheese, veggies, a spicy Thai sauce and cicadas.

The restaurant says it blanched and sauteed the creatures before adding them to the pizza. They brag about even adding the wings to the pizza doe! On a Facebook post, they wrote:

Buzz... Buzz... It's Cicada Pizza!
From a distance this pie looks delightful but once you get closer you realize those are no raisins...
Introducing Spicy Thai Cicada Pie!
That's an 18" handtossed dough with miso hoisin sriracha sauce, mozzarella and provolone, blanched and sautéed locally foraged cicadas, mushroom, cabbage, green onion, mango, cilantro, with a spicy Thai sauce after the bake and a Cicada wing adorned crust!
We definitely missed out on soft shell season as these crunchy cicadas add a heck of a note to an otherwise wonderful Thai inspired pie. Opinions of the pizza range from absolutely delicious to...well...uh...yeah...
Pair this pie with a BIG summery IPA or Lager!

However, the insect pizza is not for sale yet as the owner is working the local health department to determine if it can be legally sold. That's a hard pass for me!
