Tarantulas and Spiders
Haha really?
Be careful, some people have allergic reactions to roaches.

Really!
And really? I didn't find anything on that...I guess I will have to be careful because of my shellfish allergies, though. I'll keep benidryl (sp?) on hand! I'll also take a video.  They'll be sauteed with olive oil and spices.

Tarantulas and Spiders
Mostly with breathing. They develop over time and people have to use mask when cleaning the bins.
But...
One of the breeders opened a shop in FL. He had a contest to give away snakes to the person who could eat the most dubia. The guy died later that night. But I'm guessing he ate a very large amount.
I never saw if the roaches were what caused the death but that's what everything was leaning toward.
Happened about a year ago.

Yup, was reading about that. Personally, I don't think a quantity of anything live should be eaten...Just seem to be asking for trouble. I'll let you know if I die, lol.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...n_2192964.html Appearently he died as a result of "asphyxia due to choking and aspiration of gastric contents". So nothing to do with the actual ingestion of the roaches themself

I love how Meph completely fails to acknowledge my recent diatary intrigue.

My bug-eating ways are a total turn-on, I just know it.
