They're really quite tasty if you can get over the fact that you're eating a superworm. The first time I tried one was at a local pet shop. They were offering their cups of superworms free, if you ate one out of the cup. I was short on cash and superworms, so I popped one in. Kinda had a nutty, almond flavor.
I hope I didn't make Lele's crap list by admitting I've eaten a superworm (just kidding Lele!).

I just now read this (trying to catch up). No, if you're wacky enough to eat one...well, go for it! There is a whole science behind eating 6-leggers - entomophagy. So if you want to try some others:
