   They have an assortment of these insect lollies in a candy shop nearby, and I always wondered just who ate them. Now I know, thanks!

     Scorpions are considered a delicacy in countries who think we are crazy for eating junk food. So I can only ask, why not? Unless people find it particularly icky, which I don't, then there is no reason for me not to try.

       I can do ants. I can do mopani worms (just), I’ve eaten a snake. But scorpions are just waaaay outside the comfort zone.

   There used to be a candy shop that I'd go to as a kid that would sell these, and some with worms inside. A friend of mine got one, but chickened out before he got to the worm.

   How did it taste?

   Stacey, Sophie and Lauren. It tasted like a vodka shot with a lot of sugar in it. The Scorpion itself was tasteless, phew!
