Dude Attempts to Eat Grasshopper

Yokel-kids stand around with cameras and watch a friend nosh on a grasshopper in the middle of a parking lot. According to the video's description, the dude's name is Aaron and he did it for the money. If you watch until the end of the video, Aaron doesn't even swallow the grasshopper. He masticates it for a few seconds and spits out a mashed up insect loaded with saliva onto the concrete. America, ain't nothing like it.
