Oh, man, I did NOT know that about them. Darn!

Can't imagine who'd want to eat that since it's supposed to be so distasteful. All I can think of is that you have a monarch caterpillar in there somewhere, and that's great news! They eat all parts of the plant. I had one eating a seed pod once. Of course if it's an older one, it has probably already left the area to make it's chrysalis. Well, keep an eye out anyway!
