Frog-spit is ok (as long as you remove the feathers).

I'm sure you can - it's protein, after all.

It was tapioca at school.

Zac, you clever thing, you have hit on an amazing shibboleth.
Logically, frogspawn is protein and should not pose a problem for protein-eaters. After all, we seem happy to eat bird embryos.
But yuk and thrice yuk! Frogspawn!
On the same point, what are the major differences between a cockroach and a king prawn that makes us willing to eat one but not t'other?

Course you can , few on a spoon , away you go. However what the effects might be are anybody's guess,
