Couldn't imagine anything worse for dinner... I guess that's because I don't eat seafood tho.

Yummy looks good

I would send that plate of porn's back they got crab(s)!

So many eyes staring back :winkwink:

Looks delicious

cant touch that

totally not enough garlic butter

Im not much into crab like that although I do like king crab legs.

Looks delicious indeed :thumbsup

I love seafood and crabs especially :)

That looks delicious

too many eyes :throwup

Yup, you couldn't pay me enough to sit and eat through that... :Oh crap

I love shellfish but my cholesterol doesn't

pass......

One summer in college I was at the beach working as a waiter and a table asked me what soft shell crabs were. I explained it to them and they said they would pass because they didn't want it staring back at them. I said something like "no, the chef cuts the face off." He did, but apparently that wasn't what they wanted to hear either. :1orglaugh

SO what idiot put the knife and for there? What are you going to use them for ?

OH fuck....

Just don't understand one thing however. Whey the US people love it (e.g. crabs) fried instead of boiled? Personally I just can't eat fried seafood.

I'd eat the crab and leave the rest.

Thread saver.

I came...twice

Maybe you should stick with Red Lobster then.

I don't know where you get your info from but "we" Americans do not normally fry crab. We steam it. I can honestly say I've never eaten fried crab...ever. Boiled crab even...never heard of it here in the states. We steam cook crab. Frying and boiling removes all the goodies. :2 cents:

However, Spider Roll is a common Japanese sushi that features fried soft-shell crab:

Love the Spider Roll

looks a bit too perfect on the photo to be real :)

I never thought crabs & sex go very well together

:thumbsup

Nookster ... West Coast people will have a hard time finding fried crab on the menu in most restaurants, unless its specialty is serving up seafood. Just know CyberSEO is correct in mentioning fried crab, as it's extremely popular along / near the Gulf of Mexico states like Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Florida and Mississippi. What's used is the smaller soft shell crab.

My thoughts exactly.

(Which is odd considering I was born on Cape Cod and grew up in Maine. Yet, I hate seafood with a passion.)

Ah makes sense. I was googling just now also. It's not normal on the west coast but southerners love it. I've just always known that we steam crab where I'm from.

Softshell crab is fried all the time...

I've never seen/tried it. Good?

Be careful with softshell crab though... I'm not allergic to any shellfish or seafood, but for some reason, I am allergic to softshell crab and found out the hard way when I ordered it once. Thankfully my friend always carries an Epi-Pen on her for her tree nut allergy!

I'm with you there buddy.

looks delicious....

Had it 2 weeks ago for the first time. Was nice, nothing special though.

I'll pass.

Dammit... now I'm hungry!

Looks really good. :thumbsup

:thumbsup

seafood is delicious and healthy!
