It very well could be somewhere.

I'll bet Andrew Zimmern would eat them.

I thought for sure that the article would go on to say that the adult flies swarm to hot asphalt and eat holes into the roadway.

Reminds me of the old joke: A Chinaman goes to see the eye doctor. After the exam the doctor said, "I know why you're having trouble." The Chinaman says, "why?" Doctor said, "you have a cataract." Chinaman says, "no, I have a Rincoln Continental.

There have been a few years where MNDOT used snowplows to clear mayflies from the Wakota Bridge, I-494 over the Mississippi near Stockman's Truck Stop.

Hmmm, wonder what they taste like

I think with in the next year, I may actually be ready to try eating a bug.

Well, at least on purpose
