Yeah, Florida seafood is probably a little healthier than Louisiana seafood, but they could use a little bit of education on sauces and seasoning.

I've never understood the fascination with lobster.


Like BBQ, if you get the freshest seafood and prepare it well, you don't need all the heavy sauces to mask the taste. And it is funny that the people known for their worship of mud bugs would say anything negative about ocean bugs.

Lobster>>>>>Crawfish or you are just being a homer.

You boil crawfish and season the living shite out of them because they are crappy little tasteless mud bugs. You want a superior crustacean, get shrimp.

No, I'm just going to exercise my freedom to dislike lobster.

Is that why people get lobster and then literally dunk every bite into melted butter?

Lobster is just a butter transport vehicle.

Saying you prefer crawfish to lobster isn't "saying something negative" about lobster.

I, for example, enjoy both crawfish and lobster but they're different seafoods to eat at different occasions, so it's not really comparable.

Crawfish boils are a big part of La seafood culture that bring together family and friends for a big event. It's more than just the seafood itself.

Lobster, while delicious, is not nearly as relevant to Louisiana culture as crawfish is. Lobster isn't a southern thing, while crawfish is.

And yes, crawfish is equally as delicious as lobster. My Texas family won't lift a finger for lobster, but have devoted years to perfecting their crawfish boil recipes/routines to make us Louisianan family members proud.

Saying that needing the sauces and spices for crawfish makes it inferior to lobster is disingenuous. It's part of the preparation. Do you also judge a hamburger based off the meat alone, or does the preparation matter at all?
