Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 It tastes a bit like shrimp -- but is 'chewier' -- kinda like lobster (not that I eat that often !!!) but not as sweet --- when it's cooked correctly, it's great !!!! And 'sucking out the head' is usually just sucking out the 'fat' ----- but I personally don't care for that !!!! When you eat it cooked in a dish -- it's already peeled -- if I buy the frozen, I'll devein them-- although others don't do that !!!! Same with shrimp -- some devein them and some not !!! If we buy live crawfish -- we try to get them 'purged' -- they sit in clear water and get 'cleaned' out !!!!! Hope this helps clarify things --- it's really hard to describe ---- I can understand how something sticks in your head though !! I love most seafood -- but not oysters -- cooked or uncooked !!!! But like other seafood -- oh, not calamari though !!!! Too chewy !!!!!! Hugs, Randie Re: beets-things that gross you out so are crawfish like shrimp? crabs? I mean give me an idea. Like I said I was fine until the guy on tv snapped the head and did that thing. I am even cringing now as I type this. It is weird what gets into your head,huh:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 I am with you there , I'd rather not see what is used to be. My kids used to catch crawdads in the ditch near the house we lived in when we were stationed in Biloxi, so there is no way I could eat them. Same goes for shellfish, most look to me like someone hocked them up. I have tried shrimp but think I am allergic as I got sick to my stomach both times, but I also had consumed some adult beverages at the time ( it was when I was young a foolish ..shhh ) so am not 100% sure it was the shrimp but I am not going to find out.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Oh I love me some calamari! YUMMY! The only time I have a problem with them is when the breading actually falls off and they LOOK like a squid. Ugh! I don't like to eat anything thar resembles what it "used" to be! LOL! I know...I'm weird.
