Hey folks,
I don't know if this is a sore topic on here or whatever, but I figured I'd ask just out of curiosity:
Given that there are many cultures across the world that eat tarantulas, and cultures that eat their dead, where would you, personally, the person reading this, stand on the idea of eating your tarantula after it dies of natural causes?
Ever since I saw it on a nature show when I was a kid, I've wanted to try eating fried tarantula, but I'm also happy to never do that at any point in my life; it's not on a bucket list or anything, just more of a curiosity.
I know some people preserve their Ts when they die, but has anyone here ever... eaten one?
Like I mentioned, many cultures eat their dead as a way of keeping them as part of themselves, and I think there's something romantic in that, so I'm not trying to suggest treating any T's body in a less than totally respectful way, and I don't know if I'd ever eat one of mine anyway, I just thought it was an interesting question and I hope you guys can respect that.
At any rate, if you don't plan to monch and cromch on any of your spiders when they die, what *are* your plans and practices?
