It's around time for a recipe so that we can keep this forum up. In a roundabout way, the subject of spiders came up elsewhere, and I found this recipe.
I can't believe anyone would actually eat this.

There are plenty of deep fried recipes that are unusual yet delicious, like when the big rodeo comes to town here once a year they make and sell deep fried oreos, fried ice cream, and stuff like that. But this? No. Just no.

For some reason, the picture of the fried T makes me sorry for the poor spider. :(
But I read an article about eating crickets and did not feel sorry for them. Odd that there should be a difference. Not that I would eat either unless in the dire straits of starvation.

So what is the most unusual thing you've eaten?
 
I have eaten crickets, dubia roaches, hissing roaches, superworm, mealworms, ground squirrel, fish head, rattle snake,and frogs. My favorite when younger was these little black ants in are yard, a tarantula is next on the list.
