I forgot about hormigas culonas the Colombian fat bottomed ant. They are a great beer snack and now come in BBQ and lemon flavours. I haven't had them for years but quite enjoyed them, crunchy and anty at the same time.
The alpaca tenderloin I had in Aguas Calientes was delicious, and I have never had an anticucho I didn't like.

There's a restaurant in Bogota that serves/served a delicious ant-enrusted seared tuna - Leo Cocina y Cava, I believe.
