Eating spiders doesn’t seem all that nutritious but locusts have been on the menu in parts of the world for a long time. I’ve heard there are expectations of swarms this year, or soon, so maybe eat a lot of grasshoppers, and save crops at the same time.

robro @8 I don’t know man. I googled “how do they eat spiders around the world”.
Looks like spiders are a snack or a delicacy. Insects are more a staple I guess…
@10 yup, PZ, you’re going to have to switch to spiders with more meat in their torsos. It can also be a reason to demand more lab space and a big electrified fence like in Jurassic Park.

Coated in enough chocolate you might not even notice the spider part (or parts).

JimB @ #9 I didn’t say spiders weren’t eaten, just not very nutritious. Locust on the other hand…now that’s something you can sink your teeth into.
That’s the kind of guy that could goad into chewing lightbulbs to “own the libs”.
Well, I’m not inviting him to the potluck.
I’m wondering if he’s joking?
