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.

Imagine you were transported to an alternate universe just like your own, except people occasionally ate spiders. You can’t convince anyone this is weird. [[Two figures stand. A woman is holding a big spider. The other figure looks shocked. There is another spider on the floor.]] Woman: Mmm… Figure: No! What are you doing!? This is how I feel about lobster.
{{Title text: As best as I can tell, I was transported here from Earth Prime sometime in the late 1990s. Your universe is identical in every way, except for the lobster thing and the thing where some of you occasionally change your clocks for some reason.}}
I don’t get what you’re trying to tell me.
Sea bugs are delicious and have more meat than land bugs, I’ve eat crickets before and it’s 80% bones/ definitely not meat and 20% actual meat
You’ve eaten interesting crickets. Those that I know have no bones.
Wet bugs are very distantly related to earth bugs.
Won’t you eat chicken just because pidgeons are disgusting? (yet also eaten sometimes)
Crustaceans are the closest relatives of insects.
Depends on the pigeon, some are absolute Chads
That thing is an abomination that won’t survive in the wild, let alone cross the bering strait
