Once again Newport Jerky Company doesn't disappoint with the newest edition to their line of edible arachnids
Totally awesome experience, I've been an avid enthusiast of edible arachnids for 18 years and I've never encountered anything with such a deep, deliciously pungent taste. For any newbies let me explain: Dehydrating these scorpions does NOT kill them, it only puts them in a deep sleep, sort of like hibernation. They are kept alive for the most authentic pred/prey experience possible...when they make contact with the open air they will wake up shortly, and they're known to have the early morning crankies (>w<). So, please eat them as soon as possible if you don't like your meal to put up a fight. I do, however they are quite the spicy boys and they WILL nip at your fingers! The predatory, more aggressive arachnids are always the tastiest, especially when they put up a fight :3 I guess you could say the hunter has become the hunted. Very, very satisfied with my order. Thank you! ^_^
