Two sad car accident here and here....(ha ha ha don't laugh, it's so serious)
A Japanes sweet shop sell a beetle larva chocolate. They have another larvas too. Sorry impossible to eat for me.
I didn't know (Japanese air line) TV adthis crazy ANA . Was this aired in North America? Have you ever seen this before?? But maybe their way would be okay because Tokyo is the best geek vacation place. right?? (thank you! I like the best always :-) By the way, ANA has strange ad sometimes, this was the one they opened Chicago line.*
The ANA commercial is not exactly the same as the one you referenced. But some parts of the ANA commercial shown in the San Francisco Bay Area are the same, such as the lady leaving the plane and the man dancing in Paris. The boy with the rocket pack is NOT in the commerical shown here.
The music is Beethoven's Ode to Joy from Beethoven's ninth symphony. The music for the CM in the Bay Area is strictly classical without electronic music or electric guitars.

Are those REAL larvae dipped in chocolate or just candy shaped to look like larva? If it's not REAL larva, sure - I'd eat one just to see other folks' reactions! :)-
You can but chocolate covered ants, moths, crickets and even and scorpions over here. Tequila-flavored suckers with real meal worms in 'em are mildly popular - more for the shock value than anything. But I definitely would never eat any of these:

Some crazy people even like to eat the worm at the bottom of the tequila (Mexcal)bottle! :(-
