I got dared to eat a big wolf spider.

Should I bite the abdomen off first of the head?

I don't want it to bite my tongue

Hell with the challenge, spiders are worth more than people's sadistic sense of approval.

Sounds like you have to it live. If any thing try sprinkling it with some sugar and salt; that would enhance the taste and minimize any bad flavors (I wouldn't know since I'd never eaten a spider).

Have fun.

Do you have to eat it live? If not, bake in into a muffin. Then get really high, you'll forget all about that you baked a spider into that delicious blueberry muffin. Then you'll eat it. Challenge completed.

Go for the head first. It really is not that gross, you only make it gross. Many people in different countries eat spiders everyday. It all depends on your thought about it.

Just stick it in your mouth and chew.
