Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it's already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.

Absolutely! Also, I can’t stand ordering whole crab at a restaurant. I just want the meat without the hassle of cracking open the legs and body, getting my hands dirty, slurping all over, and dealing with the mess. Someone should handle that in the kitchen. I can boil a crab at home if I want to work to get the food out.

I get what you mean, but from the way you wrote it, I am now imagining someone slurping the crab in the kitchen for you :D

You need to find a better restaurant than Red Lobster.

A proper kitchen will crack open and loosen the meat before service.

Yeah I don't want shrimp shaped toenail in my food thank you. Or any toenail for that matter

You can just eat the tails

Excellent source of dietary Chitin

You can eat the heads too but I'd prefer not to have them in my spaghetti, same goes for the tails

The shrimp tail is nothing, but when the intestine is left in the shrimp, that bothers me!

[–] doggle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It used to bother me, but now I rationalize to myself that shrimp poop is basically just sand anyway.

If you psych yourself out about the details of eating another animal then it's pretty much always disgusting.
