I didn't know that...
I've never seen frozen maggots. I have heard that ice-fishermen buy ordinary maggots for bait and when they freeze while they're out on the ice the fishermen put them in their mouths to thaw them enough to put on the hook. But I've never lived where ice got thick enough for ice fishing, so never actually saw one. For which I am very grateful.

Yes, it's something you should be grateful for. My story of how I ended up seeing frozen maggots involves a vacation home which had not been inhabited for several months, a power outage, and a freezer full of meat. The thought of putting them in my mouth? *GAG* It was bad enough just disposing of them.
