"Now, time for the soup. Jabba likes a good beetle broth. He calls it stew, but actually it's broth. We need beetle carcasses. For flavor I'd say about 15. Rock or cave beetles. Either one."
Porcellus[3]

Cave beetles were six-legged insects that lived in the caves of Tatooine.[1] The cook Porcellus used rock beetle and cave beetle carcasses to make beetle broth for his master, Jabba Desilijic Tiure.[3]

Cave beetles appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[4] Cave beetles were almost identical to rockmites, rock beetles, sand beetles and dune beetles, using the same base model with different textures.[1]
