Bread (Body bakery) •Thai Fine Art student and artist Kittiwat Unarrom is the son of a baker.

• The cheese has to be eaten when the maggots are still alive because when they are dead it is considered to be toxic

• Diners have to sheild their eyes or place the cheese in a sealed paper bag first (larvae can jump when they are disturbed)

• Health issues have arisen (allergic reactions, intestinal larval infection)
