Plus very nutritious, as part of a balanced diet of the dozen or so bugs you eat in your sleep every year.

^(don't worry, this is a myth)

I've had house centipedes in my bed. I appreciate their hard work but I stomp them when possible.

It’s a myth on a technicality, because it doesn’t count as “eating” them if they crawl down your esophagus without you actively swallowing them.

It also doesn't count as eating if they crawl into your sinuses and lay eggs.

You have to fry them first though, because otherwise they are toxic. But they are perfectly edible!
