Does eating bugs gross you out? Maybe you should reconsider. They are a plentiful, viable source of protein after all, and most of the world is totally cool with it. It’s just the folks from the ol’ US of A, Canada and Europe who hold a taboo against eating insects. The Slow Session & Bug Tasting with Little Herds event at Art.Science.Gallery. might change your mind. Check it out Saturday, June 7 from 6:30 – 8:30 pm.
Do512 Family is all about what to do in Austin with kids. We love to be out and about in Austin and are always looking for fun things to do with the family.
