If You Have A Weak Stomach, Don’t Look
It's amazing what food sellers will put into a can these days. What's even more amazing is that people will buy it. I am reminded of a quotation from a children's movie, where one of the kids asks another, "What wouldn't you eat for a million dollars?" I think just about everything in this article from the Food Network would make that list. (And what's with the Russian Herring? Do they really have teeth like that? Were these grown in a body of water near Chernobyl?)

Flea Circuses
Three separate genuine flea circuses for your enjoyment. Well, maybe the final one's not so real.

Don Dixon’s “Praying Mantis”
Talk of bugs that eat their mates automatically reminded me of Don Dixon's one hit, the great "Praying Mantis." If you click here, you should be able to hear the song for free. Warning for those at work or in a quiet zone of some sort: it will start playing automatically.

Beer Ants
One of them is shaped like a beer mug, filled with amber gel.
It comes with a removable lid. What are the chances that the lid will get removed, and that someone will swig this at a drunken party?
