Can you eat a centipede? Yes. Would you want to (mostly for health reasons)? No.
Centipedes belong to a category of arthropoda called myriapods; they prey upon insects.
Centipedes are active hunters, and they look around for smaller insects or spiders to eat. Rarely, a centipede will attack a larger prey. Where there is no prey, they will consume certain types of plants that have some of their necessary proteins. They eat insects, spiders, and other small invertebrates. If the centipede is large enough it will even attack small vertebrates like lizards.
