It would bug me a little thinking I'd consumed some ants unknowingly, too. But, they're good protein and safe to eat/drink.
I've only been to Thailand once, on a layover and just in Bangkok - was at a bar and starving when I grabbed a few of what I thought were nuts from the bowl without really looking. Before putting them in my mouth, I noticed they were actually fried little grasshoppers or big crickets and stopped short.
I would probably try one if I ever go back there, though.
