ok, funny thing about that actually. i was watching a documentary on eating them in cambodia (for who knows why). i got bored after the documentary because it was short and didnt explain when the cambodian folks started dining on tarantulas. turns out its a very new thing (like past 60 years new). during polpots khmer rouge reign of terror one commonly employed tactic was to work and starve people to death. the communists would give people just enough rice to barely survive, with no protein in your diet you will quickly starve or lose the will to fight back or resist. so, the cambodian people turned to the jungle and deep jungle indigenous tribal folks for answer. the solution was to eat bugs. in fact, bugs like tarnatulas became such an important part of their diet people still are use to eating them over there and its normal. wasnt like that before communism
keep that in mind, thats what collectivists will have us all doing, eating our pet tarantulas
