Deep fried tarantulas are a local delicacy, particularly in Skuon (nicknamed Spiderville)
Eating of spiders is rumoured to have begun during food shortages until the Khmer Rouge regime in the 1970s. The locals liked the taste, and even when other food begun to be in supply again they stuck to eating the spiders!
