Oven-baked in their native Cambodia, these very real tarantulas are available from ThinkGeek for $24.99 a piece, complete with fangs and hair. They’re ready to be eaten straight out of the package, described as crunchy and a Cambodian delicacy.
Baked, not fried like other less-healthy cooked tarantula alternatives, each tarantula is chosen from carefully monitored sources to ensure their preservation and then cooked by Cambodian locals (probably children). The tarantulas should be on available by Thanksgiving. I call the penis!
