My friend's had one of these. Said it tasted rather nice. There's several varieties - drinks, lollies, choc coated ones, etc.

I've eaten dried caterpillars and chocolate covered ants.

The caterpillars are a bit like prawns, only dry and not so salty.

The ants just tasted of chocolate and grit. Big fat meh really.

Matel have announced Barbie's latest career... She's got a job as a computer engineer!

I love her glasses, and the pink sparkly laptop. Not so sure about the outfit though. And, a bluetooth headset?! Really?! No.

They could have at least made the binary mean something.
