Yes, in Saudi Arabia, the consumption of grasshoppers, known locally as "jarad," has been a part of the culinary tradition for centuries. This practice is not only limited to Saudi Arabia but is also found in various cultures across the Middle East and North Africa. Grasshoppers are often considered a delicacy, especially in rural areas, where they are collected, cleaned, and prepared in various ways, such as roasting, frying, or grinding into a paste. They are valued not just for their taste but also for their nutritional content, providing a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals.

This tradition reflects broader practices of entomophagy, or the eating of insects, which is more common globally than many in Western cultures might realize. In Saudi Arabia, this practice has cultural significance and is sometimes seen during certain seasons or as a nostalgic food from times when it was more common due to less availability of other food sources. However, with globalization and changes in dietary habits, the practice has become less widespread in urban areas, though it persists in some regions and among certain communities.

Gaza is now rubble: because of the sociopath sitting next to Trump grinning, knowing he owns the US.

Palestinians will never voluntarily leave. So is Trump proposing yet another US war for Israel, this time to ethnically cleanse Gaza and give Jared Kushner real estate holdings?

One of those clips where you have to make sure you're not hallucinating.
Donald Trump says Palestinians ought not be allowed to return to Gaza because "why would they want to return? That place has been hell" — next to the grinning man who made it hell.
