Ok, so what did it taste like? I was actually considering doing this myself, but I'm afraid the golden window of opportunity has passed. Supposedly, you're supposed to get them while they're still white and fresh out of their shells. Kinda like a soft shelled crab. I've heard they taste a little like asperagus, since all they really eat is tree sap. I have a whole bunch of recipes for them too. I think the most interesting sounding was "El Chirper Tacos".
