UK Woman Discovers World’s Most Venomous Spider in a Banana

|Updated:

A U.K. woman bought a bunch of bananas from a Tesco supermarket in West Yorkshire recently, but she didn’t expect the fruit to include one of the most deadly spiders on Earth.

Laura Horsfield, 31, said she found a “white pouch” on the side of one of the bananas. The pouch had a nest of Brazilian wandering spiders, which has been dubbed the world’s most venomous.

I didn't know what they were and wasn't about to start poking it to find out.
