Spider seed

Spider seed was a type of seedpod that was edible by humans. It had eight small spikes and a spicy taste. In 228 BBY, the humans Jordanna Sparkburn and Sylvestri Yarrow invited Jedi Master Mirro Lox and his Padawan Amadeo Azzazzo to a meal at a canteen on the Republic Defense Coalition mobile launch and repair station. During their meal, the Iktotchi Pop Teeno served the group fried pom-cakes with spider seed and scale flakes from Ithorian cactuses. When Azzazzo asked about the spider seed, Teeno assured him it was not actually a spider. As the group ate, Azzazzo focused on pulling apart one of the seedpods that had been fried into his cake.
