Trying the local worm delicacy


This is "tor soon tang" which is a local jelly made with embedded worms...and eaten only once a year..during winter when the gelatin from the worm is solidified. How does it taste like? hmmm..chewy like a gum. Bland - so u need horse radish, wasabi! U gotta try it to believe that such things exist. Btw, it's my mum's fav!
