High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! While most insects are considered to be forbidden by Kosher dietary laws, four varieties of locust are listed in the Torah as permissible. However the identities of the four varieties are not completely clear. According to Yemenite tradition as recorded in the work Arichat HaShulchan, the locust called "Al G'rad" is Kosher, and has three Kosher sub-species all known by that name. The Halachah regarding locusts, and all Kosher animals for that matter, is that one is allowed to eat a specific type of animal only if there is a "continuous tradition", also known as a "mesora", that affirms that it is Kosher. It is not enough that the locust seems to conform to the criteria mentioned in the Torah. This does not mean that one must possess a 'personal tradition' in order to eat locusts. If one travels to a place where the people do have a tradition, the new arrival would also be allowed to eat them.
