Biology and culture has prepared us for eating other biological beings, so steak and fish aren’t gross to most people. For most people, to use a non-food animal product, it has to be significantly unlike the animal itself, eg it’s easy to enjoy leather or fur that is not in the form of an animal. Even for food, most people are less comfortable with food the more like themselves it seems, eg a pig head on your plate is much less appealing than a pork chop. Lobsters and shrimp are not a lot like people so the disgust factor is significantly less. Yes, there are people with morbid interests in (actual, not depicted) skeletons and taxidermy but these seem to be getting more rare in modern cultures. For whatever reason, spiders trigger disgust and/or fear in most people; I can’t see necrocyberspiders ever being popular.
