Re:RE: RE: OT: Oracle *Chocolate* Monitoring Tools/Friday Re

Kevin,

    Not really, had a few chocolate bars with the ants inside while I was in South East Asia (aka. Vietnam). Taste kinda like a Nestles Crunch bar, except it's really crunchy.

Now that's a waste...you're supposed to boil the ants and then roll them up in chocolate. Then you can add sugar to the water you boiled them in and be able to serve "lemonade" with the chocolate covered ants (make sure they're carpenter ants and not fire ants!). :)

Chocolate-Coated Bugs Are Latest Treat

LONDON (Reuters) - Ants, crickets and scorpions, baked, coated in chocolate and promoted as a high-protein snack, are proving popular among peckish Londoners.

Designer Todd Dalton, who trained as a chef in Louisiana and acquired a taste for cooked insects on his travels in Asia and central America, says he has sold 5,000 chocolate-coated bugs since he began marketing them in December.

"They are very high in protein and very low in fat. They have a higher percentage of protein than any meat or fish that we commonly eat," he told Reuters.

The creepy-crawly chocs sell for between three and 3.50 pounds ($4.30-$5.00) at upmarket London stores such as Selfridges and the Conran Shop and will soon be appearingin shops in Munich and Zurich.
