I’ll shitpost about a lot of things but for some reason the “throwing car batteries into the ocean” meme actually bothers me. Like, it’s just banal enough for someone to actually start doing as a laugh and the earth is already quite messed up.

I think you need to relax a bit. May I recommend throwing a car battery or two into the ocean? I find that helps me destress.

I'm not actually much of a crab guy but its always funny when you go to the higher end buffets in like hotels or whatever and theres the dude with 20 linear feet of king crab legs draped over his plate. Our implements aren't designed for yards of food.

In Southern Ontario we have an (award-winning) chain of Chinese-American buffets called The Mandarin. They've lost the plot decades ago and they serve everything under the Sun from pizza slices to sushi to roast beef, but the main draw for a lot of people are the crab legs.

I find them disgusting, personally, and just stick to the chicken balls and spring rolls and lo mein. Really, any big chitinous sea bug is a hard sell for me - it took years for me to finally enjoy shrimp. I won't touch lobster unless it's already in like, a Po'Boy sandwich or something.

Still, my most offensive food opinion yet on the subject of crabs may be that I really like that imitation crab meat you get in sushi sets.

Considering real lump crab meat is $42 bucks a pound where I live, imitation is fine

I've never had like whole crab. I had crab cakes once when I was little and they were okay and I've had a couple of lobster tails but never the full production with like the hammer and pliers and stuff.

One of the best meals of my life was on a Turkish tourist boat where we caught a load of crabs and the guy driving the boat just barbecued them up with some lemon.
Thanks for reading my crab experience.

I don’t mind the flavor, but the texture is just weird if you’re eating it by itself out of the shell.

Also the odour of cooking crustaceans is something I find vile (similar to a lot of seafood, actually).

When I was 15 my Dad and I drove to Prince Edward Island. What a place to find out that I don't like lobster. We drove back with a styrofoam cooler full of the things, and when we got in at like 5AM, after a long nap I woke up to his entire apartment reeking of cooking lobster. I almost retched.

King crab, dungeness crab, and blue crab are pretty much tied in my book, and all tastier than lobster. And that concludes my hot derail take.

Australian spanner crab is better imvho than all of them.

Lobster sucks, bugs (the underwater kind like Moreton Bay or Balmain) are markedly better than both lobster and crab imvho
