Japanese author serves up insect feast

A Japanese author behind an insect recipe book says that spiders are his favourite dish. The onset of autumn in Japan means that spiders are presently Shoichi Uchiyama's preferred insect dish, gently boiled and served on a bed of rice. The meat, he said, is soft and reminiscent of simmered soy beans. http://www.travelforlife.ru/p122/l825/index.html
