CNBC:
If you hate [flies], then Lorenzo Maggiore is your patron saint.
"I was a weird kid, I didn't like flies," says the 57-year-old from Los Angeles. "I used to put them in my Hot Wheels cars and send them down the track. They land on poo, and then they land on your food. Anything that does that, I'm not really interested in."
Maggiore is the artistic madman behind Bug-A-Salt, a $40 "gun" which uses table salt as buckshot to stun or kill bugs, especially flies. Salt makes the product safe to use around food, and it also doesn't blow the bug to bits. "That's another thing that's beautiful about it, it leaves them whole," he says. A lot of times, Bug-A-Salt doesn't actually kill the bug, it just gets it off your table.
I liked the Make magazine article on zapping mosquitos with lasers better, myself.

And edible! And pre-seasoned! All it needs now are a few drops of napalm to crispy fry them. Dip them in some wasabi, and yummy!

Not in my America, Zulu bug-eater. We eat things that bleed blood!
