JERUSALEM (AP) -- An Israeli woman swallowed a cockroach and then a fork she used to try to remove the insect from her throat.

The winged cockroach jumped into the 32-year-old woman's mouth as she was cleaning her home in a village in northern Israel this week.

"It's a bit of a strange story," said Dr. Nikola Adid, who operated on the woman Tuesday to remove the fork from her stomach. "This is the first time I've ever encountered anything like this. None of my medical colleagues in this country have heard of anything similar either."

An X-ray showed the fork, lodged sideways in her stomach.

7. grasshoppers are a seasonal delicacy in Uganda...

had 'em kinda stir-fried from a roadside stand and they were meatier than you might imagine.

Also had cicadas in China - deep-fried - and I really liked 'em...

but then, I'm from South Louisiana (mud-bugs, ya know...)
