the coca-cola caper

This morning my co-worker, David (who sits next to me) had a sip from his can of Coke that he had bought the previous night when we was working overtime. Being about 11 hrs old, it was hot and David's report on the taste of the substance was "not very good". After my recommendation that he should throw the rest of the can out, he emptied it down the sink. To his surprise about 50 ants swam from the Coke can, all of them still alive and kicking. Must be the caffeine keeping them awake and active.

The day could only get better! (And I bet David wishes that was actually true!)

This story reminds me about the banana i unpeeled one day to discover not the fruit, but about 1000 maggots. Sorry to kill your appetite...

In some ancient cultures, Ants are considered a delicacy, reserved only for the imperial. Ancient recipes for the anual 'feasting of the Ant' include the following:
Ant and coconut sauce
Mashed Ant
Ant Curry
Ant stew
Pickled Ant
Ant and Ant Pie
Ant and Mashed potato
Ant and cranberry sauce
and last, but certainly not least
Roast Ant.

'The act of eating crisp, crunchy ripe, well done Ant, can bring to vitality and longevity to ones other wise feeble existance'

Don't be ashamed of being an Anteater - unless you are an Echidna or a Porcupine - in which case - you are brutal and inhumane.
