Well this sent me off googling for choc ants ... which takes you into a whole new unexpected world! Here's the most fun thing I found:
"I had chocolate covered ants when I lived in Houston, and they did NOT taste good. The chocolate was good, but the ant part had an acrid taste, sort of like the way they smell when you smash them. Chocolate covered bees were much better."

I'm STILL laughing!
