Dessert stands all over Bangkok are overrun with honeybees, drawn to the sugary treats just like us humans are
Either nobody is getting stung, or nobody gives a crap about the buzzing beauties.
However, the treats do look delicious– even though they’re being ravaged by the feet of 1000 flying, stinging bugs. In most countries, this kind of infestation would cause a cart to be shut down for good. Not in Thailand.
If anything the bees are drawing in more customers, eager to see what all the buzz is about. And it’s not just dessert carts! Fruit carts are also getting overrun by the bees in the summertime. I guess nobody seems to really mind risking a sting or two for a hearty cup of melons. The way they just scoop the bee bodies out of the juice is simply professional.
it seems that street food in Thailand is the Wild West of culinary institutes
