TRIVIA QUESTION: How did the dish "Ants Creeping up a Tree" get its name?
TRIVIA ANSWER: I always did like the name of this recipe. A Sichuan dish, you'll also see it called Ants Climbing a Tree. The name refers to the ingredients: pieces of meat (usually ground beef or pork) are thought to look like ants, while vermicelli noodles resemble the branches of a tree.
