Termites, a tasty treat



If you poke a dead wooden stick into a termite nest, the termites will come out of the nest to investigate the stick. If you pull the stick out of the nest, you will have a mouthful of tasty termites to eat.

I took at taste of the termites and so did Arron, as you can see in this video.

The termites taste earthy and woody..ie like dirt and wood.
