Default Love For Roaches?

This probably sounds weird but i dont care at all when my beardies & leos eat up all those juicy crickets but im just getting ready to buy in my first lot of Roaches. So i was wondering if anyone else (not so much as feels guilty) but feels something towards the Roaches.
Its just that im beginning to think that crickets are annoying little things, so Roaches are the ideal feeder food.
Hope this all makes sense, so basically was it hard the first time you had to use Roaches for food?

Tried my beardie last night with Lobster Roaches and he's mad for them, never seen him so excited for food, tried him with a couple of Crickets this morning and he didn't want to know! Think I need to get my roach breeding program up and running ASAP

Must admit my wife hates the roaches more than the crickets, suppose it's their reputation and the way they scuttle around, funny though, if they land on their backs with their legs kicking around Harry won't touch them, as soon as they get the right way up he's in there! Just have to wean him back onto Crickets until I can get the breeding going!
