Berlin - Fancy a delicacy to tempt your taste-buds? How about maggots?
A German restaurant claims to be fully booked after adding these squirmy critters to their menu.
Dishes at the Espitas restaurant in Dresden include maggot ice cream, maggot salads and maggot cocktails.
Apparently, the eatery imports the "nutritious and extremely tasty" maggots from Mexico.
Espitas owner Alexander Wolf said: "We are the first in the world as far as I know to start importing them.
"What started out as a bit of a joke has exceeded all expectations.
"We started serving maggots about a month ago, and now we have guests spreading the word to their friends, and we are now fully booked for weeks ahead.
"We serve maggot salads, fried maggots with cactus and corn, maggot desserts such as maggots in ice cream or chocolate sauce, and of course maggot cocktails. - Ananova.com

Flies spread disease to animals. Myiasis is the infection of an animal with fly larvae (maggots). Common in cattle, (picture at right), sheep, and deer, myiasis also occurs in humans, when certain flies are attracted to wounds, where they lay eggs.
The hatched larvae (maggots) then burrow into the skin. Depending on the type of fly, the larvae remain in the skin and cause lesions, or they move through the body and cause damage to various organs.
Intestinal myiasis occurs when humans ingest food containing the eggs of larvae.
