There is one species of locust that is allowed according to the laws of kashrut. However, there has to be a multi-generational direct tradition of eating this locust. Today, only a small percentage of Jews are allowed to eat it, since the identity of the permitted locust-species was lost to most Jewish communities (Rashi commentary, Leviticus ch.11). Those who have handed down that tradition are the Yemenite Jews.
