Always fun to see Mrs Santee
Yep! I get to see her everyday. Lucky!
@@ArizonaGhostriders I will pray for her healing. God Bless you both.
@@bgbeck55 Thank you, but she shaved her head for a friend going through chemotherapy.
@@ArizonaGhostriders you've got a pretty special lady there. Her friend will be in my prayers.
Thank you!:)
I’ll pass on the bugs. Loved the reaction of your bride. Best to you all. Merry Christmas. 🙏
Thanks, you too
The idea of eating that really bugs me!
It's kinda funny how the wild culinary is perceived as a modern-day. We have forgotten a lot. Great episode. Keep them coming 🤠👍 Merry Christmas all from us in Western North Carolina.
Thanks! Will do!
"Grasshoppers are a very special treat for those willing to make the jump."
Ehhh, I'm ok not eating them again. I won't be hopping to buy them.
That was easily the best and most hilarious video you've done this year.
Your wife's reaction speaks for most of America. Seeing you wash your bug down with liquor straight from the bottle tells me how much you savored the experience too. :)
I just hope you don't end up acquiring a taste for them. You'll put Orkin out of business. ;)
HAHA!. The taste wasn't bad, but the idea that there maybe legs or eyeballs wandering around in my mouth made swishing second nature.
This is why scotch was so popular: it is the only thing strong enough to get the taste of haggis out of your mouth!
LOL, great episode Mr. & Mrs. Santee.
I won't be switching from Burgers & Fries to Grasshoppers anytime soon. 😀
JT
Me neither
I have to admit that your video editor is great. Must do a lot of research to come up with some of the clips. Just love them.
Thanks. I appreciate it. -Santee
Excellent episode Santee. I have tried meal worms and crickets for a survival demo. Not bad. I hope Mrs. Santee recovers! Cheers!
Yeah, not bad. Like rattlesnake. I'm not waiting in line for it!
Hey, Santee! Can't believe your good lady did more spitting in 20 seconds of grasshopper tasting than Clint Eastwood in the whole of "The Outlaw Josey Wales!" Very unpleasant for the both of you, but very funny for us! Brilliant!🤠🤠🤠
Glad you enjoyed it.
Very funny!
Another fun episode Santee! I feel like that would be my reaction to grasshopper as well.
LOL!
I laughed so hard when she said quit being a baby and then she about then she about puked!
Yup! Serves me right! :)
LOL!
This video was very funny! Mrs.Santie made it the most enjoyable ones. 😁🤣😂🤣😂👍
Glad you enjoyed it
The ending is the greatest, I loved it. Thank you for taking a hit for all of us, your lovely bride said it all.
youre welcome.
Great episode. I applaud Mrs. Santee for trying a taste of it. I believe it would be safe to say she did not like it.
yup
Nope, didn't like the texture.
Ever since I saw Lonesome Dove I've wanted to try a grasshopper 😂😂😂. Thanks for another great video!!!
You're welcome.
Our boys aint too partial to eatin’ bugs.
Thank you Santee, your wife is so cool near the end of the video. Take me a little while to eat some of those dished. Thanks again.
HA! Thanks.
Old timer told me once .. only a hungry coyote will hunt! Food for thought!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
You got that right!
Mrs Santee is looking lovely as ever Mr Santee
Thank You!
For some reason I had no idea that eating cow tongue with Greek salad was considered odd but it was good thank you santee 😭
You're welcome. Ugh
My mother ate tongue, tripe and head cheese all the time. I think that was so us kids would leave something for her to eat...only the dog would chomp that stuff down...
I believe Mark Twain once said, "Any moving picture can be made better by the inclusion of an otter." At least, I think he said that. 🤔
And Mrs. Santee was so brave trying out that cricket... At least until it hit her mouth. 🙃
Probably said that!
Your wife is great Santee!
Don’t lose her!
Merry Christmas to you both!
Faithful subscriber. - Craig -
Much appreciated.
Thank you so much! He's a keeper himself! ;)
What a wonderfully graphic response to a 'Local Delicacy' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
HAHA!
Merry Christmas to you and your family hope you are doing good another amazing video yet again offal is very good for you and getting very expensive interesting video thanks for sharing 👍
You're welcome, John!
Wow that really was some food for thought. You two really hopped on that one.
Yeah, it bugged my wife, though.
Great stuff Santee and Boss, but didn't make me hungry.......🐾🐾
Lol!
Most of it is psychological, except for tripe, I'll never eat that again! Nope, nope nope. Cool video Santee!
HAHA!
No, grasshoppers will not be replacing Funyuns anytime soon. lol Loved it Santee.
Thank You!
Got to say, this series had me stomped! I thought it was only burgers and steaks! Hahahah! Awesome one! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it, Alpha!
@@ArizonaGhostriders BTW Santee, I wish you and your family a fantastic and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2023 sir. Stay safe as well.
@@AlphaTraveler1 You as well, amigo!
Great episode as always. had to watch Part one over again because, well its been a long time and I thought I had missed something. What I enjoyed the most was watching your cat give you the look of "what its a staple food in my diet"
HAHA!
Nuevamente mis condolencias Mr. Santee. Gracias totales por el sacrificio en pos del periodismo gastronómico. 👍😀❤🍔🍗🍑
Thank you very much.
Wow,!! I think that you and your wife are very brave Santee as I would never dare put a grasshopper in my mouth.
Well..it won't happen again!
@@ArizonaGhostriders I totally understand why
Merry Christmas to the best cowboy and cowgirl in The West 🤠🤠🎅🎅🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Happy holidays! Thank you so much!
Very interesting and informative video, I really liked and enjoyed it.
I learned a lot about odd food in the old west.
So nice of you
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks👍🏼🌟😎
Hope you and the others in the your possie have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR. I appreciate you pard.🇺🇲🤠
Very nice of you to say! I extend the same to you, Robert! Thanks for keeping the spirit alive.
@@ArizonaGhostriders I've turned a bunch of my cowboy fast draw buddy's on to you. I may come over to you one day. I'm known as handlebarslim in the fast draw world.
Growing up on a ranch in the Appalachian region of Tennessee in the 1970s, a lot of these foods were fairly common. I don't know that I count that as a blessing. I have eaten a lot of things, as you said, just to say that I did. Best of Days to All the Ghostriders.
Very cool
Another excellent video, Santee! My ancestor talked much about the diet during civil war and post civil war, one of the most interesting aspects the officers, soliders, cadets, wives, and civilians last were feed in that order.. Tripe and off cuts was feed to the kids, while strong meals feed to men. He explains how he hated tripe, and liked what the local indigenous tribe offered, and his mother gave him a boiled egg, and bread cooked with weavils, and lard bread sometimes, but nothing was wasted. Fish was the other dietary supplement, as well as berries, fruit jam made from berries. The dogs often got bones and fish heads, as well as occasional dead animal like rats and mice. Chickens and cattle, no pigs or sheep due foot and mouth, and a few Judas goats offered more milk to the youngen's. Post civil war was hard, as he explained that a bloke was found eating pig food and stealing chicken eggs. Anyways, when you come to Australia one day, you can always try a witchetty grubs, which is said to taste like almonds.
Fascinating history, there. Witchetty grubs....hmmm. I might pass. Certainly there would be something more palatable on your continent!
Loved it!! Now I have to find Riley's insect cookbook!
You should!
Ha ha ha... I tried some chocolate covered crickets once, and had the same reaction as Mrs Cheese!!! Yucky- Poo 😁
LOL!! Yeah....
OMG, as always, I loved your video, Santee. The subject matter may have been rather unappetizing, YIKES, but it was so interesting. I never really thought about the *unusual foods they ate back then. Mrs. Santee was so daring and gung-ho, but at least she tried...👏
Love your videos, Santee...👏🤠👏
Thanks so much!
Great Show !!!!!!!
🤠
Love the honest outtake. Probably will stick to the usual, but you did try.
Yup
Charming and informative as ever...
Keep up the good work !!
Try a Haggis !
( A sausage made of Lungs, Liver and tripe,
mixed with oatmeal, stuffed in
a sheep's stomach, and boiled )
This is what Scottish Cowboys eat.
REAL men !
Will do!
@@ArizonaGhostriders Plus lots of Black Pepper !
I couldn't help but think of Capt. Woodrow F Call when the grasshoppers came out.
That tastes like candy what is that? Grasshoppers! spit spit spits. 🤣
LOL!
You guys hare are brave having tryout grasshoppers 😄 thanks for the lesson part 2 Odd food the old west
Our pleasure!
@@ArizonaGhostriders And mine has well 👌
I think i'm gonna react like Mrs Santee! 😝 You have nerve Santee 😂 I think i'm having a nice steak instead! 😋😄 Thanks for the cool video and topic, friend! 😀
Hope you enjoy the steak.
@@ArizonaGhostriders i always do 😉
I'll agree with Mrs. Santee. Now pass that bottle, Sir!
HAHA!
Santee: taking one for the team by eating a grasshopper for our education
Me, watching this video: Eating boneless wings and grilled shrimp, nodding
HAHA!
As a boy in northern Minnesota, I ate fried grasshoppers several times. Catch them in the yard, and fry them live in a pan (with cover for obvious reasons.)
So they were a staple?
@@ArizonaGhostriders They were a treat.
Your cat is thinking - "Good they hate eating those bugs so now I can eat them all and they won't care".
HAHA!
One of my coworkers is from Texas and he told me that some of the snacks he would eat included snake meat and scorpion lollipop. I should try these foods when I have the chance.
Snake is ok. Scorpion....I dunno.
I have been laughing since I saw Mrs Santee (the pewpew girl) eat a bug! You can bet I'll share this episode of A.G.
Thank You!
Thank you for another great video have a merry Christmas and a happy new year
You as well.
Great video! I think I'd be doing the same as the Mrs . LoL
LOL!
Awesome video. Love the clips . Amazing editing . My Dad used to ask us if we'd like some CPR (canadian pacific railway) strawberries for desert . Turned out to be stewed prunes. Keep Safe❤Keep Well ❤ Merry Christmas to you and yours 🎄🎄🎄
Prunes!!
Santee, if you bring out a mug the size of the one you're holding at the end I'll buy another of your mugs. 👍👍
That is a big-un
Giday santee. Well I liked this video it started me thinking what the setters here in Australia had to chow down on . Witchetty grubs. kangaroo .
And holl lots of Bush tuker that I
Do not want to go into just in case it might upset your tummy 🤣
I'm fairly good at blocking out the fear and just trying things (like you saw in the video). I even tried durian fruit, which smells like dead rotting bodies.
Didn't taste good.
As a civil war reenactor my two favorite coffee substitutes are sweet potato coffee and pecan blossoms but the ladder is more of a tea than it is a coffee.
That's interesting!
I'll tell you, Santee, this episode really bugged me!
Seriously, while I'm something of an adventurous eater, I do have my limits, and eating insects is far beyond those limits!
-Desert Rat Rick
Yeah, I thought that too. Then I started a TH-cam video.
I refuse to eat bugs unless they are a certain size and live in the water.
I hear ya
GOOD VIDEO AS ALWAYS SIR, SORRY ABOUT YOUR FRIEND PASSING MAY SHE REST IN THE LORD HOUSE. GOD BLESS
Thank You!
I'm very interested in "odd" food and tried a lot of it.
Next sunday i will try "Schwäbische Alb Oysters", meaning a rams nuts from our native sheep in southern Germany.
Enjoy....uh yes!
Great job and well done.
I got a lot of inspiration for old West/arctic wilderness inspired creepy pasta series Mysteriarch Mythos I’m writing.
I’m definitely going to be adding odd foods to my old West inspired story I’m writing.
Go for it!
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks 🌟😎👍🏼
That made my morning. Now you have to reward Mrs. Santee for that experiment. I ate fried insects back when I was a boy scout.
Whoah!
I think Mrs. Santee's reaction best describes my desire to eat bugs and snails and other fine delicacies. Puhh
HAHAH!
should have tried chocolate covered grasshopper, i heard it tastes great 🤣😎
and a tip of the hat to Mrs. Santee for doing what 99.9999% wouldn’t do with the grasshoppers
LOL!
Awe love the kitty Cat at the end
He was interested, until he smelled them
Hey Santee, I went to the flea market today and picked up 2 leather postcards from 1906 and a mustache mug, I think a video on postcards in the old west would be interesting, although they didn't really become popular until the end of the western days but I find em really neat.
Cool! Leather?? Wow!
@@ArizonaGhostriders I had only heard of leather postcards once or twice in passing yet never saw any until yesterday, funny thing is that I found them by accident when I asked to take a look at a pile old notebooks and they were underneath. There were a couple more that I didn't buy which I might go back and get one day. After doing some research it turns out that people would save the postcards they got and sew them into pillow cases and wall banners. And I'm sure people also used them for clothing repair as well as they still had alot of life in them beyond being a postcard.
The stuff people eat, even today. Ha. Well, Mrs. Santee hacked up that formerly leaping hopper just in time.
HAHA!
In Texas, menudo is the best cure for a hangover. We eat it for breakfast after a long night of partying. And it's made with chitterlings in Texas.
So I've read.
I am an outdoors kind of person I love the old west, and I will say that I have tried Rocky Mountain oysters, three times cow brains, Menudo crickets mealworms of course they processed and numerous other things and I am willing to try anything
Good!
MERRY CHRISTMAS Ghostriders. If you were a "little" bad this year try a shot of whiskey and a little jerky for Santa. Couldn't hurt.
HAHA! OK.
Ha-ha! Next week Santee and friends open a faro table and tell the customers "you will own nothing and be happy!"
Perhaps.
@@ArizonaGhostriders actually, a video on how to play and deal faro, and head canoe manufacture would be something I'd like to see.
Anybody who says they wouldn’t eat a bug has never had lobster, crab, shrimp, or crawfish.
Right. But...very different taste. Thats why we don't sit down to a plate of crickets or scorpions.
“To the lesser of two weevils!”
I have been waiting for someone to acknowledge that joke! Thank you very much!!
I saw a video from a friend of mine talking about menudo the other day!👍
Cool!
In the South, we eat most anything. I love souse and potted meat. Chiterlings are good. We are acused of eating everything from the rooter to the tooter and I guess that's true, but I want eat bugs. Merry Christmas my friend!
HAHAHA! You as well.
Great video Santee. Your wife deserves a nice Dinner out for doing that for the video
You mean, other than a Grasshopper dinner?
Oh my goodness, your wife had me rollin' after calling you a big baby. 🤣
Yeah, she does that.
Maybe it was just the salt and lemon "flavoring." Get Mrs. Santee to try honey covered grasshoppers and I bet she'll change her mind. 🤓
Hmmm....maybe
If I had to eat a package of grasshoppers it would have to be with a fifth of whiskey chaser.
The whiskey was to swich the legs and parts out
Sorry to see we lost another Ghostrider. R.I.P.
Watched this video, ironically while eating dinner.
Hopefully Mrs. Santee wasn't too bothered by her critter experience. 🦗
She's got PTSD, but we're working through it.
Grasshoppers, think of them as dry land shrimp maybe?
Sure!
Love head cheese with lemon and Tapatio, great snack
Hmmmm....now that's a good way to eat it.
Now you know why whiskey was so popular in the west. Neede it to was the food down.
I would try a steak from that period...just to see how it differs from ours nowadays.
Yeah, toothless laughing grandpa is back. I just love this guy.
Sustainable food source for the whole kitchen
Glen Gold is gold
The insects do not seem too odd. In Europe there is a dish called cockchafer soup. It was in use in the 1900s, went out of fashion and is coming back as "future food" slowly. The beetles have a smaller CO2 footprint than cattle.
There are also recipes for candied cockchafer.
Organ meat isn´t odd either. In Germany there is a tradition for deer hunters. The organs, the tongue and the brain go to the hunter. The organs are used for a sour soup or stew. The soup tastes good. I can totally understand that settlers would not let it go to waste.
Waste not, want not.
No Fair Santee! You drank over 3/4s of that bottle before eating that kricket.
(I would have too).
Oh yeah. Gotta prepare, ya know.
Very interesting video my friend. I would do cricket flour over wheat flour.
I need to try it.
Well heck golly... Got to round up some chicken livers...good eats. Have a great week Folks
Hope you enjoy
The strangest thing I ever ate as a teenager living in Arizona was buffalo nuts and yes I mean testes. I had them on a dare!😂They weren’t really that bad a bit salty/chewy, rather eat that then cow brains. I’d rather eat rattlesnake than Buffalo nuts.
Yeah, I wasn't nuts...er...CRAZY about the testicles either.
love them.
Eels, aspic, or grasshoppers?
I've heard of eating grasshoppers, even cockroaches and crickets. I think I'll stay away from all three thank you very much.
Good choice.
Nice! 4.7k views and 1K likes in 16 hours?! Moving right on up! So sorry so many of your friends have been passing away. Thanks for sharing them with us!
I appreciate ya!
De-leg the grasshopper, and I'm in.
Mine didn't have legs...but I think it had a head.
I actually really enjoy crickets and larvae (cooked and seasoned of course), they're just too expensive ironically haha rest in peace, Miss Donna.
Thank You!
My grandfather turned me on to Head cheese when I was young. And I still enjoy it today. Along with its friend Souse. Love em both. And a few other strange passed up exotic cuts.
Yes
Yeah, no bugs for me. Rest of the food in this made me hungry though. And I just ate.
HAHA!
Thanks again Santee & Co . The Bible records that Apostle John the Baptist ate honey and locusts . There are locust insects and locust trees that produce beans , but the scriptures tend to lean towards him eating the former . The Latin word for eating insects is Entophomagia . John the Baptist and Jesus lived during the Roman occupation period of Judea , so it would not be seen as strange to the Romans at the time as they had a name for it . I image the Mormons / LDS Church would eat locusts in a pinch .
Yeah, the Egyptians did too. When in a pinch....
I’ve tried grasshoppers, meal worms and crickets. Wound up with some sort of stomach bug…I’ll see myself out…
HAHA! 🤠
love to learn more about the west
Good!
