    “Meat is muscle, and insects must have muscles to move - its just that their muscles are inside their external skeleton rather than outside their internal skeleton. In fact i have seen insect muscle, when i watched a preying mantis eat a large blow-fly.”

    No longer must you suffer looking like a fucking idiot, making claims unsubstantiated simply because you “feel” they’re correct.

    Behold! Google!

      Well I don’t care for propaganda sites. I know “eat the bugs” is currently pretty high up.

      But again, using the term “meaty” to describe a tarantula where the most you will eat is the exoskeleton is just bad faith
