Edible spiders - Haplopelma

As you travel up to Baray from Phnom Penh, there is a town called Skoun where a turn off will lead you eastwards into Kampong Chham. There the specialty is a kind of edible tarantula. Apparently this spider is quite known through SE Asia as the 'edible spider', Haplopelma albostriatum.

They seem quite harmless alive, and not venomous.
