Concept: To inquire the sense of taste into a delicious experiment. Have the students compare and contrast their dirt worm dessert to real dirt and worms.
Procedure: Mix a large box of chocolate pudding with 3 cups of milk. Stir until well mixed and let stand for 5 minutes to allow pudding to set. Add in a regular size container of frozen Cool Whip. Crush a row of Oreos in the large Zip Lock bag. Mix a 1/2 cup of the crushed Oreo's into the bowl with the pudding and Cool Whip mixture. Spoon your treat into clear plastic cups, sprinkling with crushed Oreos and then placing gummy worms on top. Bon Appetite!
