I'd like to take a poll or start a debate...need opinions

Hi..just wanted to start a thread about this subject..I have a friend who I constantly go crabbing with off the bridge near the red bank marina. Every year we have this discussion. When I get home I boil the crabs and CLEAN them like everyone else I know...rip the back off pull off the gills, etc etc. HE cleans them before cooking by just taking the mud off the bottom of the crab, then throws the crab in whole and boils them too... BUT when he eats them, he EATS EVERYTHING (except the gills)... I am talking about the meat, the intestines, the green stuff, the yellows stuff and every other color that's in there
...lol. He said its ALL DELICIOUS and that I AM missing out. I told him one nite he will turn out the light and glow in the dark
I said you are eating s**t and the mustard which I understand all the toxins are filtered through...thoughts and opinions would be appreciated

Ya see I boil. Cajun thing I guess. I don't eat the guts but the fat is delicious. Put some on a cracker with a little garlic and onion and get out of my way.

Your buddy does CBC, clean before cooking. Clean before, clean after, its all good. I prefer CBC simply for easier & cleaner eating right out of the pot.

There is currently a poll and a debate on this very topic in the Recipes Forum. The link is below.
http://www.bluecrab.info/forum/index.php/topic,47472.0.html
I note that you said you boil your crabs. There is also a discussion thread in the Recipes forum on boil vs steamed.
Check them out!

Well eating frog legs is just another way of eating bugs. I am pretty sure the frog didn't clean the bugs before he ate them. Best bugs I ever tasted. I swallowed a Green Fly once by mistake while I was standing beside an outhouse. Not nearly as good as them frog legs. Give it a try and let us know. Your buddy is still alive.

I clean my crabs first, then steam them.
BTW, I eat the meat, but I draw the line when it comes to eating the gills, intestines, etc.
Those are nasty.

Only those who have never eaten crabs before. For those of us who eat crabs reguarly we know NOT to eat them.
