Does the Cap'n Crunch stay crunchy in beer?

Ever eat the worm from your Tequila bottle? I've never been drunk
enough to.

I tried a worm for the first time a couple of nights ago.  I bought one of
those 50-ml. airline-sized bottles containing the wormy variety of tequila.
Unfortunately, I had bought it a long time ago (two years?), and it had a
very stale taste.  I'm not sure if it was that way when I bought it, or if it
had just sat too long.  Well, any way, so I make this tequila-and-oj, and I
save the worm in the bottle (to savor it, don't you know?).  Dinner that
night was lasagne, and I figured what the hell, they put pot in brownies; why
not a worm in my lasagne?  Now I know why not.  THAT STUFF TASTED ABSOLUTELY
***AWFUL***!!!  Not only that, but it didn't even have the reputed "punch".
My recommendation to anyone who is interested is:  Don't.  It just isn't
worth the nasty bitter taste (really makes you gag).  I'm glad I didn't waste
the effort on one of those evenings after One Of Those Days when I kept
threatening to drink it; those were the nights I really wanted to escape
reality, and this just didn't do the trick.

While I agree that the worm is no delicacy, it is alot better if you
don't eat it with your lasagne(sp?).  You have to be drinking tequilla
before you try the little critter.

Also, I don't think real tequilla has a worm.  You usually find them
in the more "rot-gut" forms, like mezcal.

The Cap'n Crunch does stay somewhat crunchy--basically it acts the same way
as it does with milk. I guess I should try it with Team cereal to see what
it does with that.
