From early Friday evening...

 

[Big Hank]

oh dang!



The grub in question is the agave worm (gusano rojo) and there are several theories about its presence in the bottle. One of these is that the worm guarantees the strength of the distilled spirit. Another is that the worm is supposed to endow special powers and is said to have hallucinogenic properties. The addition of the worm to bottles of mezcal dates from the early 1950's and while consumption of it has become somewhat of a young man's rite of passage

"i always wondered if it would look different after 14 beers!"

 

[BRIANHO13]

"That' not a fawking worm, but I will eat it anyway!"

 

[Pat]

"i wonder if i can get the bottle to the guy next to me in the sweet early 90s Nike Air t-shirt before this little bastage slides out..."

 

[BOB]

All complete bullshit from Mexico.

That worm is the result of a gross out contest in TJ between a well known group of SoCal surfers, but specifically, Mickey Dora and Phil Edwards. Although, there's a famous picture in Jack's of Hobie Alter after 22 caterpillars and 22 shots....

It turned into a cult thing for SoCal surfers in Mexico. Gusano Rojo? There ain't no Gusano in TJ or Ensenada, the bar owners had to send every kid in town out hunting for anything with more than 8 legs on the weekends. Gusano is the result of some marketing genius here in the states ( A Surfer). You dopes just drink it up and chew. Ever wondered why the absolutely worse TQ comes with a worm?

Further, it was Mickey that got involved in the first Gold Coast mescal distilleries.

Ricia for us. Stupid fawkin worms for you.

"You're right... that sure doesn't look like a worm to me either...I think someone hocked a luggie in there...I'm gonna go throw up now..."

 

[Big Hank]
