Chapulín (tʃapu'lin), is a locust of the genus
Sphenarium, which is commonly eaten in the Mexican region. The term is commonly
used in Mexico and derived from the word Nahuatl chapolin [t͡ʃapolin] or
chapolimeh [t͡ʃapolimeʔ]. In Spain and most countries using Spanish, the word
for grasshoppers is saltamontes or saltón
One of the areas of Mexico where
chapulin is widely consumed is Oaxaca, where the food is sold as a snack at
local sporting events
In addition to Oaxaca, chapulin is
famous in the vicinity of Mexico City, such as Tepoztlán, Cuernavaca and Puebla.
