Scorpion soup

This is what scorpion soup apparently looks like. Scorpions are traditionally
eaten in Southern China, where they can be bought from local markets.
This delightful dish was found from growabrain.typepad.com
A Recipe for a scorpion soup can be found from: www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk
Best is that everything can be eaten except for the tim of the tail!
How gross do you think this was on scale 1 to 5?

Maybe these are water-scorpions ,which are bugs (heteroptera) but not real scorpions.
You can find this (or nearly related ) species on nearly every continent of earth.

They are water beetles called hydrophilids. Not Scorpions!

Ewww. That is disgusting and gross. I would never eat that and who in their right mind would? I would rather let myself die than eat that sickening s**t. I will loose my appetite.
