yummy πŸ˜‹πŸ€€

Enjoy!

Eggs? You eat female crabs?

of course! they're delicious 🀀

That’s not good. You must allow the next generation to live, or you run out.

depends on the crab.

these freshwater mitten crabs are mostly farmed, its sustainability comes down to economics as mitten crabs technically are invasive to Taiwan (taiwan has its own native species of hairy crabs ζ―›θŸΉ so ecological damage is somewhat limited)

ocean crabs have size requirements to meet and there are harvest quotas throughout the year -- there are even times out of the year where females aren't sold

...and then theres imported seafood

I hear crab is delicious and cheap in El Salvador.

Some of us might go next year, from Japan. You should consider it!

i wonder how they prepare crab there πŸ€”

my only reference is a lobster platter i had in baja california, mexico like a decade ago that came with beans, tortilla, and salsa
