Several other countries may offer some rather exotic dessert treats such as those chocolate-covered insects which are also popular. Take Thailand for instance where people take a fondness for crunchy crickets which are coated in chocolate and even lollipops with a scorpion right in the middle of it. There are countries which serve chocolate grasshoppers or other chocolate-covered insects, such as ants.
