Look Ma, I Ate Live Sago Worms!!!
Jul 22nd, 2008 by Clare
I have always wanted to eat a LIVE sago worms since…since I ate fried sago worms when I was 9. My mom wouldn’t go anywhere near sago worms (or any worms for that matter) and so I was banned from purchasing them at the market and bringing them home.
They say, when opportunity knocks on the door, put down that dishes you are washing and open the damn door! So, I jumped at the chance to go to Mukah with Huai Bin when he asked (I’m THAT impulsive okay, shut up!). Being the typical kiasu that he is, he has covered most of the trip already so I’m not going to bore you with the details 
Okay, back to sago worms. My main objectives in Mukah were LIVE SAGO WORMS and UMAI. In this post, Kampua Talk will bring you to a totally new food adventure. Instead of eating Kampua and crap like usual, let’s do something extraordinary.
We went to the tamu or market the next morning for our exotic food hunt. We stopped at the first stall we saw selling sago worms.
1 bungkus RM5.00 (It used to be cheaper more than a decade ago!)
Sago worms have a plump, yellowy-cream body with a soft-ridged texture and a hard-shelled head. On close examination, the body can be seen to be covered by fine hair. [Wikipedia]
The nice and friendly people at the market taught us the proper way to eat the sago worms alive. They even went to the extent of cleaning the worms for us before we ate.
Shoppers: What are these kids doing filming themselves eating worms? Big deal!
Don’t scream or call 911 when you see sago worms! I know a lot of girls do that.
You pick them up - the fattest, the slimiest, the juiciest, the better
You rip the head off
Then you eat it
Contrary to popular belief, it is as simple as ABC or 123 - PICK, RIP and EAT!
Stop staring at my you-know-what, the sago worm that I was eating got all excited right before I ripped off its head and hence the splash damage
Here’s the video of me eating live sago worms:

They look similar to Aussie Witchetty grubs that people regard as tasty bush food. Take me along there when I visit Sibu.

Now what else did your mother tell you not to do, and yet you did? Ok! Confess! Hahahahahaha!

Haha! Thanks for taking photos of me camwhoring. The dubious copyright and royalties for that is yours if you want it.
