Well, maybe as a novelty since there's not much of a food value. However, it would be wise to pick and choose wisely since some of the poisonous ones (recluse, black widow) could risk your life or cause extreme painful.

Small Spiders could be unwittingly swallowed while eating unwashed vegetables and fruits but few cases of envenomation of the mouth or throat are reported in the news. In any event, it probably should be considered risky activity to intentionally ingest live spiders. If fear of ingesting live spiders leads you to washing your fruits and vegetables before eating them, that would be a healthy reaction. Snopes says that there is nothing to the internet myth that a person eats several spiders a month (see link).

However, properly cooked, spiders are considered delicacies in some cultures (see link).

Some people in funny countries eat spiders, but if you eat the wrong type of spider you will probably die. Webs, I don't think it would be very clever to eat web.

It's not really good or bad for your body when you eat spiders accidentally while you sleep. It's basically harmless.
