Hermit crabs are very versatile animals; they will eat anything. However, this doesn't mean they should eat anything. The one thing you absolutely can't give your hermit crabs is citrus fruit, as the acid will soften and erode their teeth, will dry out their mouth, and will be very painful to them.

There are other foods you should also avoid, such as pickles, tomatoes, and any other food that has a significant amount of acid in it.
