“When I took the first bite, I thought that since they just smoked it for five minutes, if the tarantula was still alive, would it crawl down my throat?” he added

SINGAPORE: On his recent trip to Cambodia, Singaporean television presenter Danny Yeo ate smoked tarantula while filming for the food documentary, Wartime Food. In his interview with local news Lianhe Zaobao, Danny said that he had joined the locals of Cambodia in tarantula-hunting. The moment they caught a spider, they immediately removed its venom and put a branch in its heart for it to be dead.

Danny Yeo stated : “I was told to find some branches to start a fire… At first I thought they were going to barbecue the tarantula, but they just smoked it over the ashes and said that it was ready to eat after five minutes.” He explained that the spider, with all its hair, tasted like a soft-shell crab.In one of his Instagram posts, the presenter shared the process that he underwent in finding the tarantula.

Danny Yeo stated in his post caption: “The things you have to do for the camera. And social media. Oh, the terrains, the trauma and the terrifying trials we go through.”
