When projecting a possible situation like this, I always remind myself that everyone I've ever heard interviewed who had to (or simply wanted to) eat ants said they were "spicy" and "kinda tasty, actually". It's the formic acid in them that gives 'em a little tang.

Now, if you've eaten ants and it was the worst experience ever in your life, just keep it to yourself! I may need to eat ants someday and I need a clear mind about it. <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
