Fuck yea I gobble that "shit" up. This dude I know will actually scrap that shit out of every crack he can find.
crab mustard is like the guts right?
I was always told it was their shit.
It's fucking tasty! Shit or no shit.
Q: What is the yellow stuff inside a cooked crab? Some people call it "mustard." Is it fat?
A: Contrary to popular belief, the "mustard" (or the "green gland" or "tomalley") is not fat, it's actually the crab's hepatopancreas, a main component of the crab's digestive system.
The hepatopancreas is a gland made up of very small branched tubes (ramified tubules) located on both sides of the mid-gut in the main body cavity directly under the top shell and functions as both liver and pancreas. It is involved in producing digestive enzymes and is responsible for filtering impurities from the crab's blood.
The "mustard" has a strong taste and is eaten by many people who consider it a delicacy.

Like I said just call it tasty.
Love crab meat! I use to have it in sandwiches all the time, from the snack van when I was working. Prefer lobster though, it's got more taste to it.
I love me some crabs. And although I live in Maryland, I have never been to Ocean City....sad really.
I've never had crabs.
Seriously though... I've never eaten crab. I've heard it's best fresh... and that's not possible in Ohio.
you can have it shipped to your door fresh from the coast within a day. i know
i love crabs
I agree, king crab shells are WAY too hard to break open .. the shell is SO fucking thick! To hard to crack, usually end sup hurting my hand before I'm done.
I prefer Dungeness legs myself .. thinner easier to split shells, but still fat legs. YUM YUM!
I can eat like 5 lbs of crab legs .. meaning 5 lbs of meat, not 5lbs cummulative LOL I even eat the meat out of the white part that holds the legs together.
if you learn to eat them correctly .. you get a lot of meat at once .. if you don't shred it up like a spaz while trying to get it out of the shell lol.
That's what I think too, Juli. But if it was a bunch of friends, and there was some other food to eat so starvation wouldn't take over, it'd be a lot of fun to crack some shells together. :nod:
