On the August 27 episode of SBS's 'Jungle Food,' Lee Seung Yoon, Ryu Soo Young, Seo In Guk, and UEE tried tasting a giant caterpillar in the country Vanuatu.
A giant caterpillar was served as a special dish in the Vanuatu jungle. Lee Seung Yoon hesitated at first but was the first to try it, saying, "It's sweeter than I expected... It's delicious." Ryu So Yyoung, who had been waiting to try the caterpillar, said, "I can't believe I'm doing this," clearly emotional. Seo In Guk trembled before taking a bite. Although everyone initially felt reluctant, they all praised the taste after trying it. UEE was the most hesitant, saying, "I can't eat things like sea squirts or silkworm pupae." Lee Seung Yoon encouraged her by suggesting an easier way to eat it: "The outside is tough, so just suck out the inside. It’s really good."
After nervously eating the caterpillar, UEE ultimately admitted, "It's tasty." She compared the flavor to "coconut and milk pudding," adding, "I can't believe I liked it, but it was good."
Ryu Soo Young compared the taste to "peanuts, mung beans, and cashews," while UEE added, "It tastes like pine nuts."
