"It looks so chubby and delicious!"

Liu Feifei couldn't help but purse her lips, her eyes shining with a longing for food.

If I had just arrived on the island, I would have felt burdened to accept these rodents, but now I feel no burden or worry at all.

Having eaten python meat over the past few years, bamboo rats were naturally no problem for me.

Zhang Xiaotong had already made such preparations before coming, and naturally accepted it in her heart.

And this groundhog looks very fat, so it must taste really good!

"Feifei, you two go and kill this bamboo rat."

"Then I left some of the subcutaneous fat and went to start a fire."

Chen Fan handed the bamboo rat to Liu Feifei, and then went to start a fire.

Because he had brought a tinderbox before setting off, he only needed to find some stove and dry grass to easily start a fire.

"Alright!!"

Liu Feifei gladly accepted the bamboo rat; at first, she was indeed hesitant to kill these small animals.

But now they've become much bolder.

After all, if you're too saintly, you simply can't survive on this deserted island.

...

Chen Fan quickly started a fire.

Then I helped Liu Feifei with some simple treatment of the bamboo rat.

This bamboo rat is very fat, so it has a lot of subcutaneous fat.

Bamboo rats may look large, but they don't actually have much meat on their bodies.

It's mainly because its fur is quite long that it looks so big.

If three people share a bamboo rat, they can easily finish it.

Fortunately, he had caught a lot of bamboo worms beforehand; otherwise, just one bamboo rat would not have been enough for the three of them.

Half an hour later, the bamboo rats had been processed.

"Chen Fan, shall we roast this bamboo rat and eat it?"

Liu Feifei also spoke up and asked.

Because when they came, they only took some salt, not a pot.

Moreover, they wasted some of their fresh water when they slaughtered the bamboo rats, so now the bamboo rats will probably have to be roasted and eaten.

"Hmm, let's find some broad leaves, wrap them up, and then throw them into the fire to roast."

"The meat should be cooked after the outer broad leaves have been mostly burned."

Chen Fan gave a brief instruction.

This method can better preserve the moisture and nutrients in the meat.

While grilled meat may be crispier, it also loses a significant amount of nutrients.

Furthermore, some moisture will be lost from the meat!

This method of wrapping the food in broad leaves before baking effectively controls the loss of nutrients.

"Okay! I understand."

Liu Feifei nodded and then went to find Kuoye.

Because this area is a bamboo forest, there are relatively few broad-leaved plants.

It took me more than ten minutes to find it.

At this moment, Liu Feifei prepared to roast the bamboo rat.

Zhang Xiaotong, standing to the side, looked at the other package Chen Fan had brought over and asked curiously, "Chen Fan, what's in that package? Is it other kinds of meat?"

Chen Fan had that bag of things with him when he came back from looking for food.

It weighs at least a pound.

Moreover, one could vaguely see the broad leaves moving slightly.

I wonder what's inside?

"Yes, it's filled with meat, and it's meat with a very high protein content." Chen Fan smiled.

Then the broadleaf was opened directly.

The moment the broadleaf was opened, Zhang Xiaotong was startled.

Because the broad leaves were filled with large, white worms.

It looked like maggots in a latrine, making her feel a churning sensation in her stomach.

I almost threw up.

I even felt a tingling sensation on my scalp.

Although she doesn't have trypophobia, having so many worms together would make her feel very uncomfortable physically.

Even Liu Feifei, who had seen the world, felt uncomfortable after seeing those things.

Although he can accept food such as rats and snakes.

But she found it hard to accept the sight of these white worms in front of her.

Even seeing those densely packed white insects crawling in the hole made me feel uncomfortable.

It feels like a million bugs are crawling all over my body, it's so itchy.

When viewers in the live stream saw this, they were instantly thrown into a frenzy.

"Holy crap!!! Aren't those maggots from the toilet? Is Chen Fan planning to eat maggots?"

"It looks so disgusting! I just threw up the brain-dead pickled cabbage noodles I was eating..."

"Chen Fan really has unique tastes. I'd admire him if he actually dared to eat this kind of insect."

"You guys upstairs are really a bunch of ignorant fools who've never seen anything like this before. You actually called it a maggot??"

"This is clearly a bamboo worm, okay? This thing is super delicious, it tastes like chicken, it's crunchy, and it has ten times the protein of beef."

"Damn it!! Doesn't beef have any dignity? All sorts of things have ten times the protein of beef."

"Speaking of which, this kind of insect is really delicious. My family eats it often. It's really fragrant after being deep-fried."

"I ate this stuff when I traveled to Yunnan before. It looks scary, but it tastes really good, and the price is outrageously expensive."

"Even if you kill me, I won't eat that stuff!"

"Me too. Even if I starve to death or jump off this building, I would never eat these maggots."

"Wow!! I'm getting trypophobia, it's making me feel uncomfortable all over, like these bugs are crawling all over me."

...

The live stream room instantly became lively.

Although many netizens are familiar with bamboo worms, only a portion of them may have actually eaten them and found them quite delicious.

However, many netizens cannot accept this kind of food.

These maggot-like insects are so disgusting to look at.

The thought of eating this kind of food makes me feel terrible.

Especially for those with trypophobia, just one more glance makes them feel like they're about to explode.

"Is this thing really edible? Chen Fan, I'm not well-educated, don't try to fool me."

Zhang Xiaotong looked at Chen Fan with her clear, innocent eyes, clearly still finding it hard to accept.

This thing looks like a maggot. Even if it really is rich in protein,

Even if it contained 25 times the protein of beef, he would absolutely not be able to accept such food.

Even if it meant death, even if it meant rolling down this slope, he would never eat these maggot-like worms.

"Of course you can eat it, and it tastes really good."

"But if you two can't accept it, then forget it, I'll just eat it by myself."

Chen Fan didn't want to force either of them.

Anyway, there's still bamboo rat meat to eat.

He had never eaten bamboo worms before, but he had heard that they were delicious, so he brought them over mainly to try them out.
