“Ever Eaten A spider?” Only if I swallowed one while I was sleeping, but never on purpose. Nor do I have any intention of trying one.
I’m sure I’ve eaten a spider at one time or another.
“Ever Eaten A spider?”
Only after swallowing a fly...
Yeah, no.
Yum. It tastes like pâté. Would that be chicken pâté?
So what insects or arthropods would you eat? Assuming you eat sea arthropods already.
I think I might try escamoles -ant pupae aka Mexican caviar, and some leafhoppers that Andrew Zimmern ate in Madagascar.
The guy also ate maggot cheese in Sardinia and dung beetles in Thailand. Not on my menu.
Locusts? They’re kosher. Cicadas look sort of appealing when they first emerge - they are ivory with a faint pink and green iridescence. Call them tree shrimps. But not appealing after they go green-black. They aren’t kosher. They don’t have the right kind of legs.

Not that I’m aware of, but I am the only person I’ve ever met who has eaten a Porcupine! Skinned and cooked her like she was a chicken.
When there is documented proof that Bill Gates is eating cockroaches, and spiders… I still won’t eat that crap.
Hey guys... Don’t eat spiders. Whoever thought it was a good idea was batshit crazy.
WEF? Them first.
I don’t care if its an Eint-see Whint-see spider.
I’m not that desperate.
The closest I would voluntarily come to that would be to eat baked items made from the flour of crunched bugs.
I won’t need to worry about getting any antennae stuck between my teeth.
Pate, from any animal, is highly overrated, as is Caviar.
The high prices don’t add any flavor.

I’m not eating bugs. Let Klaus Schwab and co munch down on all the “tasty” bugs they like. I’ll have a steak.
Several related spiders are considered a delicacy in New Guinea, “plucked by the legs from their webs and lightly roasted over an open fire”
I have a different variety of Orb Weaver that pops up in the garden. I have never thought about eating them though.
