Well, now that I've cooled down, I'm actually feeling sorry for Paul_au.

Come back and be nice, make peace, OK? Paul?

We're really not all that mean, just as I'm sure you're just too impulsive with your words on the internet. Because it's so easy to write things, it's not like in a conversation where the words just sort of disappear into thin air and memory! Here, it gets recorded forever. I've committed the same mistake several times, and had my ears BURN after discovering it. I forgive you and take back my cheng.

They're called "Takkataen", Delawang.

Elephantspike, I like the way they are crunchy and salty. The silk worms, too.

In Mexico, they eat garlic-fried, cactus-eating worms, yummy! They even put them in beer or tequila! Back to Thailand. I had great fun watching my son discover his first fried takkataen and silk worms then asking for more later. And it was too bad that he had to discover ant's eggs in Mexico, not from his homeland. Umm, he didn't like that so much. He enjoyed more the experience of harvesting the eggs from the ant-hill.

Markus, what've you decided about mosquitos?
