Barstool Eats Full Sized Dehydrated Tarantulas

The classic Snapple cap fact that people eat an average of 8 spiders a year is luckily a complete myth. The chances of someone involuntary eating a spider in their sleep is extremely low. Vibrations from breathing and potentially snoring would keep the spider away, so a wet mouth is the last thing a spider is looking for late at night.

Eating mouthfuls of spiders when you go to sleep is a myth, but eating tarantulas when you come up to the bar is 100% true. The zebra tarantula is a 10-13 centimeter spider covered in thick hairs with massive fangs. Luckily the spiders we are eating are dead, but even if they were alive their bite wouldn't be lethal to humans.
