Nah, I don't like the stuff, just sit there & watch them eat it. Put her off for about 48 hours.
Crunchy at a guess tho

Nah - I mean the Maccas - what does that taste like?

That is definitely a weevil - and they taste delicious - I had a very good one with a Yiros side recently.

its a weevil know them to well

Looks like a weevil.

Any bag of (ground) flour will hatch weevils if left in hot weather for long enough (many people keep flour in the fridge/freezer for that reason). So if it hatched in the flour then was mixed and baked...

If you were in the US you would be rich now...

I told my daughter that they hang around with a whole lot of mates
so there could be more We probably would'nt have known if she took a bigger bite.
Dunno how it could have survived the milling/baking process. Maybe came along later??

I cart grain every day,from graincorp depots and farms,and that to me is not a weevil ,its too fat,weevil are more slender that and are gray in color....that to me is a beetle of some kind....put it this way ,I have never seen a weevil that size...then again it may be from overseas......

Nope.
Weevils are thinner, longer and have a grey/brown colour....... and a long nose.





That one looks more like a dung beetle....

No, seriously though, more like a black lawn beetle.
