Have or would you ever eat the worm from a Tequila bottle?

No worm exists in Mexican bottled tequila. Rumor has it that the worm was first introduced in the 1940s simply as a promotional device. It is true you can find the worm, which has no hallucinogenic qualities, nor does it act as an aphrodisiac, in some American bottled tequila, sorry to say it is little more than a marketing ploy. So if you happen to have a bottle of tequila with a worm in it chances are it is American and mezcal. If you eat the worm and you feel strange after swallowing it is more likely the effect of consuming a bottle of alcohol rather than the worm at the bottom, which is little more than pickled protein.
