white ant egg soup

          

if you walk through the street of thailand, cambodia, vietnam, your senses will be greeted by a slew of some of the most bizarre foods in asia. white ant egg soup is a mixture of eggs, partial embryos baby ants. people say the eggs pop in their mouths, releasing a sour flavour. the eggs are soft and apparently have a sour taste. 

 

care must be taken to overcook the insect and their larvaes so that the texture remains. the eggs have been described as musky and tasting somewhat like mushrooms. 

 

are you brave enough to try???
