Chocolate Covered Scorpions Mmmmm Yummm....

What is the world coming to? Chocolate covered scorpions. toasted ants. Whatever next?
THIS may be unpalatable news. Upmarket store Harvey Nichols has launched a range of insect-based food products including worm crisps, chocolate covered scorpions, and toasted ants. And if that sounds distasteful enough, the bad news is not only will you have to hold your nose while you eat them, you'll have to pay through the nose too.
The unusual range, priced from £2.95 for a packet of worm crisps to £15.95 for a tin of toasted ants, has been launched in Harvey Nichols' Edinburgh store. The line also ncludes Thai green curry flavoured crickets, toffee scorpion candy, Tequila lollipops with  real worms inside and civet coffee, which is made from coffee beans that are prepared for roasting by being passed through a civet cat. There is also a type of tea, which claims to have been picked by trained monkeys.
Join the queue at Harvey Nichols in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
