This is true today, but it hasn't always been. The worm goes in the Mescal simply and purely for it's added punch of soaking up the mescaline, which is a psychedelic alkaloid found in the cactus. The Peyote Cactus contains the highest concentration, but the worm is able to soak up concentrations of the drug in the cactus producing lower amounts. There's an old saying that says "eat the worm, see the world"; it's a hallucinogen that's all it is today.
Now, in years gone by, a worm was placed in all sorts of alcohol bottles. It wasn't for decoration or abuse. It was to provide "proof" of the alcohol content. Apparently (no idea if this is true) the worm can live in booze that has a proof of less that 80. Therefore, a worm would be dropped in a bottle to prove it's alcohol content was at least 80 proof.
Just useless trivia floating around my head that I thought I'd share.
Trust nobody!
A college professor dropped a worm into a beaker of alcoholic libation as the class watched. The worm died and the professor addressed the class. "Now class what does this demonstration prove?" The class sat rather confused and dumbfounded until on student raised a hand. The professor, delighted to see some thought eagerly called on the student who responded.. "Drink booze and you won't have worms!"

Well, just call me cheap.. I won't spend $5 for a margarita on Friday or Saturday when I can go another night (Monday or Tuesday) and get it for $1. I try to buy all my gear used. I spent $200 on used HHs before I figured out that a new BB was my best option. And it took weeks for me to justify the cost to myself... I drive a 9 yr old Saturn that still has dirt inside from when I hiked Virginia in April/May. I never smoked a cigar, and never learned how to smoke a cigarette properly back in '64 when everyone else was doing it backstage at highschool. Won't discuss smoking anything else later on... But I'm too cheap to buy. So $5000 cognac probably isn't for me, even if it's named after HH.
cheap beer is the best when camping just make sure its cold, after 5 or 6 it all taste the same and you feel so less guilty when visiting the "rest room"
i do not remember the question, however i believe beer is the answer
