    Even before I went vegan I never understood seafood. Who wants to tear a crab leg apart for a tiny bit of meat?

      I absolutely love both the flavor of the meat and the feeling of ripping it apart with my hands.

        Having had lobster exactly once, I really don’t understand. The meat tastes like nothing, exactly like 99% of all meat. The only exception is a good beef cut, and that still has to be prepared correctly. Everything else is just about the butter, salt, spices.

        The manual part I can kind of understand, honestly. There’s something rewarding about working for your food. Though I did feel like I’m using more energy to get the food than I end up consuming. It’s like a lick-mat for dogs.

      I feel the same about lobster and crayfish. A lot of work for a lot of money and very little gain.

        I love seafood, and eat all manner of seafood, and have not once, in my entire life, seen anyone eat LIVE seafood.

        Who the fuck are you hanging out with?

          Oysters on the half shell, raw, are alive not dead. I love seafood too, and eat raw sashimi grade fish all the time but yeah I’ve never eaten a raw alibe oyster either.

            The guy complaining about how common it is doesn’t seem to live in any of those regions though. Most seafood is not consumed live, even in those places. It’s weird that that’s the major complaint with seafood.

            Many people go their entire seafood eating lives while never eating from a live creature.

          I literally can not even be around people eating seafood, like if younwere the most fantastic person and I were madly in love with you and you asked me to meet at a sushi bar or go home, I’d be on my way home.

              I would appreciate the intent, and attempt to meet me part way, but I really can’t eat around seafood tbh. It makes me nauseous to smell it even. No idea how so many other people go through life without this curse.

          All animals are basically digestive tubes with add-on parts to help move it and keep it alive.

      It’s part of the experience. Same thing can be said for something like chicken wings or un-shelled nuts
