You just have to feel sorry for these folks. Nothing ever seems to go
right. Maybe they're just too far left?

Apparently, their beliefs were not as strong as the lure for a free
lobster dinner.

Years ago, while at the Tahoe cabin of a friend, my business partners son
(maybe 12 at the time), tells the host that he and his brother are
carnivores, and do not need the vegetables. We still laugh about that one.

I lived in Texas and Louisiana for about ten years. I cooked crabs for my
new in-laws one time. I put them in tubs with salt for a few hours. Then
I
pulled them live, and ripped the shells off them, and cleaned the guts
out.
Boiled the shelly carcasses after that. They asked WTF I was doing, and I
just explained that I thought that sifting through crab guts to eat crabs
was unappetizing. THEY LOVED THE CRABS! They never cooked another whole
crab, hair, hide, eyeballs, and everything, but cleaned them first.
Softshells are another matter. Even old MaMa, who had been doing it the
old
way for decades preferred the clean method.

I was always confused by you Loosanna folks. You clean the crabs
before you cook them but you suck the goo out of the crawdads and eat
it.

I always thought picking crabs was a social event anyway. You can eat
a couple dozen and still want a hamburger.on the way home.

Technically, you do not suck the fat out of the head. There's a bunch of
other crap in there. You reach in with your thumbnail and get the orange
fat and separate it from the rest of the goo in there. Very good. If you
buy packages of cleaned crawfish, you get one small packet of fat per pound
of crawfish. It is orange. It is used to enhance some crawfish dishes like
etouffe. And most Louisiana folks cook crabs whole, not cleaning them
first. Unless I started a trend in the early 70's, and now it has caught on
and is the norm.

Yer s'posed to fill up on the fries and hushpuppies, not the crabs.
You're right about the social aspects.

"Not to bright?"

Not to bright, what?

Not too bright, sir?

Are you the typocop today?


Don seems to ignore your typos. His Master must have sent him orders.

Rob


Or, he can read and think.


Hardly. He ignores *your* typos - not others outside of his Master's
tiny group.

I didn't think you needed the additional help to understand a simple
statement. I was wrong.

I think they need to lighten up. I didn't claw my way to the top of the food
chain to eat brussel sprouts.


You haven't made it yet. Keep climbing.

I know this is difficult for you, but I'm not responsible for others'
behavior.

You seem to be wrong a lot. At least you admit it.

You need to be careful who you step on on the way up, as they'll still be
there on the way down.
