Skuon Spiders

AS A general rule I try not to eat anything that has more limbs than I do. About 70km north of Phnom Penh is Skuon, a town famous for its produce market and freshly fried spiders. The locals harvest a particular species of ground-dwelling tarantula and cook them with garlic or chilli. If you have spent much of your life being careful of things that bite, then popping a spider in your mouth may not come easily.
