What kind of unusual/strange food you had a chance to try and did you like it (for example: snake meat, snails, frogs, etc.)

An omlette made from tarantula spiders eggs!

In the words of Crocodile Dundee: "You can eat it, but it tastes like sh1t"!

Tapir is tasty though...

Road kill exactly isn't food

How many eggs are necessary for a proper tarantula spiders eggs omlette!

It takes the full egg sac of just a single spider to make one. This constitutes approximately 200-500 individual eggs which are a little smaller than a caviar egg and dark grey/black in colour. You squeeze them out from the abdomen of the spider in a similar motion to milking a cow and cook them over a medium campfire in a pan for approximately 5 minutes.

Advise adding a spicy flavour such as tabasco or chili sauce as they are incredibly bitter and tend to repeat for several hours afterwards.
