Hi, @TheEdVerse, long time no see. How you been? I have a rather weird question for you.
In my country, during this month people “hunts” and eat ants (we call them “hormigas culonas”). They only live in my hometown (they cannot thrive in another climate). There’s a hot climate+ …in my hometown. My question is: is there an equivalent custom in the Realms? In which region those kind of ants (or a Realmsian equivalent) live and are eaten.
Hope you can answer this, and thanks for sharing your Realmslore with us!

…herbed oils, and fried (the oil makes them stick together in a mass that can be pushed against the pan with a wooden paddle-spoon, into a cake, and then eaten. Both of these customs happen in all exccept the coldest winter months (ants always available).#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 28, 2019
