I've eaten some crazy stuff out in the wild, but I draw the line at spiders. I've seen them eaten (big hairy tarantulas, roasted. Kinda reminded me of crab when they snapped the legs and there was actual meat in there), but never been hungry enough to partake myself. Well, not on purpose, anyhow. It's my understanding that 95% of American adults over 35 have, at one time or another, eaten a spider in their sleep when one crawled past their gums looking for whatever spiders look for.
Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
