Why do you love to crabs?(what does that suppose to mean JK) It's pretty unique tasting compared to other food. When I was a kid I had allergies to shrimp and that included crabs so I didn't eat again but then I started eating them again and no allergies. So I guess I have desensitized myself from my seafood allergy. I like mud crabs but I don't like Alaskan king crab it's very bland or maybe it's just the way that it is cooked that I don't like. I love crabs. Now I have a pet crab. He is a fiddler crab. The cool thing about this guy is that he is capable of regenerating his arms if it gets torn off. I still am not sure of it's survival against winter temperatures here in AZ. Here's a picture : http://www.mylot.com/w/image/2421539.aspx

I'm not a huge fan but if they are deep fried, smothered in butter and some red sauce is close for dipping, then I'll eat them. I'm more of a soft fish fan because you can do more with them, crabs seem to hard get at and the meat isn't so good, from the crab that I've had.

Hi, It has been long time I never eat crabs. I like to eat crabs,but it take long time to eat crabs,so I have to make sure I really have time to enjoy,then only i will eat crabs. I remembered I did eat buffet dinner which offered different kind of dishes with crabs...from black pepper crabs,ginger crabs,etc... I was in that restaurant for 2 hours eating those crabs...so delicious. Do you know that pregnant woman can't eat crabs? Base on the information given, if a pregnant woman eats crabs,then her baby will be naughty and active like crab too. How true it is...I am not sure.

I like crabs especially if it's cooked in coconut milk. The only problem with eating crabs is it's shell, it consists more of what you can consume.

Crabs are sure tasty especially when picked right. I love to eat spicy crab dishes like Black pepper crab and spicy crabs, However, i am not really inclined to seafood, but into chicken and beef. Nevertheless, they are great tasting seafood and also have their aesthetically appealing looks. I usually prefer crabsticks to crabs .LOL. My choice for shelled crabs would be the flower crab what about yours? :D

I know my boyfriend is a big fan of crabs and so is his 11 year old daughter. I am allergic to any kind of sea food so I cannot eat them. I am glad too as I can't imagine eating them. Happy sea food eating to all, enjoy, but without me okay.

Hey friend, I like to enjoy the meat of crab, but I hate the shell of the crab. With the hard shell and little meat, I choose not to eat crab meat. ha! ha! ha! you have reminded about a case of eating too much of crab meat. A customer of my wife came to her office and told the staffs that he bought a big basket of crab for some where. the next day morning, his wife came to the office to inform the bank for closing of of her late husband's bank account. After eating the whole basket of crab last night, her husband couldn't wake up the next day morning. May be he was killed by the high cholesterol. I hope we have to control our appetite all the while.

I love them! I live near the sea and used to go crab hunting at night with my cousins...I don't know there English names actually, but I'm familiar with with all the types of local crabs in the Philippines, with their Filipino names only too...I love seafood in general and I'm one of those lucky people who never gets allergies if I eat too much of crustaceans^^

I did not dare to eat crabs more than a decade years ago because I was afraid to touch a crab because of its scary shape to me. Later I became brave and tasted it to find that it is very tasty. Now there is no problem for me to eat crabs for its good taste. I love especially its yellow part. It is really yummy.

Crabs! Anyone? - Crabs are so enticing!
It depends on how it was cooked. I love crabs if spicy and cooked in coconut milk. I also like buttered crabs. Hmmm, my mouth begins to water! But I make sure I eat in moderation to avoid too much consumption. Anything too much is always bad so aside from watching out what I am eating and I also do watch and monitor how much I am consuming.

I love all kinds of seafood, but I think that crabs are among the seafood I most love. I had my fist crab when I was 4 years old and I still remember it. We were walking through a desolate beach with my mom, an old uncle and a lot of cousins. A man came by selling cooked crabs and they bought some. We opened them with stones and small rocks and ate them with our fingers. I cannot express how wonderful was that taste! I suppose now that part of it had to do with doing a somewhat forbidden thing.

Hi there! I love crabs especially the big ones. I usually eat them with rice and they are just so irresistible. The thing though is, crabs are so high in cholesterol that's why I only eat them occasionally. Also, the huge crabs that I so much love are quite expensive here at our place. Crabs are cheaper when you live near the shores or somewhere near the shores.
