Thank you!  It's nice to hear about this from someone who knows the proper way to do it.  If anyone lives around the Houston, Tx area then you can find them at the downtown Spec's.  They're pre-cooked and taste pretty decent at $13 a jar.  (Call ahead, I've only found 1 out of 4 local Spec's that carries these)

You can also order really unique bug/snake/whatever food from thailandunique.com (cobra whiskey, pizza flavored scorpion, etc)

and of course there's hotlix.com which has different flavored crickets, mealworms, and buggy candies.

Thanks again, I've always pan-fried, but now I'm excited to try boiling and marinating and seeing if that makes it better!
