Weirdly, also incredibly common in the northern Black Hills in South Dakota too; one of my favorite critters growing up (along with roly-polies/pill bugs) because of that “imitate a cinnamon roll” response to danger!
Update: He said no.
Specifically, he said, “That’s gonna be a no, bro.”
Dude, it looks like a rat turd.
Goddammit, Burpo! 
Holy smokes!
Do you think it can be deep fried, like some folks do with tarantulas?
I would imagine, probably tastes like fried mealworms (surprisingly edible!)…
By which I mean, tastier than expected.
I’ll take your word for it.
Millipedes produce cyanide and are not tasty. They are common in South Africa - not just the giant ones, but little black ones like in the OP are ubiquitous. I have dozens in my compost heap. They are harmless and cute. Locally we call them shongololo.
A’course your Giant African Millipedes are non-migra’ory.
Millipedes are herbivores and harmless. They are usually pretty slow.
Centipedes are the predators, with bitey mouthparts you don’t want to get near.
So, they aren’t gripping jackfruit by the husk?
Are you suggesting that jackfruit migrate?
(Man, talk about dumb, obvious jokes some people can’t help but reflexively make.)
Well, it depends on whether it’s an African or European millipede, I think?
(Aaaarghhh…)
Wait a minute, suppose a centipede and a millipede carried the jackfruit together?
They would probably get into an argument about who was really doing the heavy lifting?
And then the centipede would eat the millipede, and the jackfruit would be forgotten…
But wouldn’t the millipede outrun the centipede? It has ten times more feet after all…
Shouldn’t that be a Kilopede? A millipede would have 1,000th of a pede. 
I’m goin’, I’m goin’.
And…a bicycle built for…hmmm? 
Living in Africa, I can assure you that these are mindless bumblng idiot insects whose only threat to you is the ‘ick’ factor if you step on one.
I grew up in Zimbabee, where the giant ones are ubquitous.
Wait until you see our snails!
