We suggest that superbursts from some low mass X-ray binaries may be due to
breaking and re-formation of diquark pairs, on the surface of realistic strange
stars. Diquarks are expected to break up due to the explosion and shock of the
thermonuclear process. The subsequent production of copious diquark pairing may
produce sufficient energy to produce the superbursts.
