South Jersey Residents to Try Fried Dragonflies at GreenFest

South Jersey residents and visitors will have the chance to try some unconventional foods this weekend at South Jersey GreenFest, an event taking place on September 19-20 at the Edelman Fossil Park and Museum in Sewell. 'Bug Chef' Zack Lemann will be serving up bug-based dishes that are sure to raise eyebrows.

The menu includes cricket cookies, which are essentially chocolate chip cookies with roasted crickets instead of chips. The crickets add a nutty crunch, according to the source. There's also Crispy Cajun Crickets, which are roasted and seasoned with Louisiana spices.

For those feeling adventurous, there's Red Beans and 'Yikes,' a New Orleans-inspired dish where the rice gets replaced with a poached caterpillar. And for the truly brave, fried dragonflies will be served on sautéed mushrooms with Dijon-soy butter.
