Yummy, I've eaten my share.
Nothing worse than a bee getting inside your helmet ok perhaps a wasp or a hornet
Goes like this smack sting ouch ouch ouch pull to side of road dump bike pull helmet off get buddy to extract sting
Full face helmet with visor is so much safer

So your telling us to eat the bugs before they eat us?
Had to do a google search for yellow jacket to find out what it was WASP this side of the pond...or what happened to me, a yellow jacket up my shorts, stung on my inner thigh, wow!!, emergency stop at place in Ocean Springs called One-Eyed Jacks, I need a cold beer I said, what kind the barkeep asked, I don't care, I said, put it on the wounded part, ahhhh relief, and everyone in the place laughing, including my wife!!. Last time I road in shorts!
Okay, if I get stung by a bee, it is bad for me. Not bad enough to have to go to the hospital yet...but my brother had to start carrying an Epi-Pen when he was in his 40's...I have 2 more years to get past that stage. Time will tell I guess. I do keep a close eye on any bee stings, since if I get stung, I swell up something awful. Here are a few shots of my hand after a sting by a yellow jacket last summer. I didn't get the full sting on this one either, LOL, if I would have gotten the full blow, my hand would have been twice that size.
