y'all think I'm joking when I say they're only after chocobo

Not having seafood is a major gripe of mine (with regards to being on campus in Arizona). At least my previous college in Pittsburgh had seafood regularly, albeit maybe somewhat... dubious.

Seafood in landlocked states makes m nervous.

I loved eating crab as a kid!
My grandfather lived in Virginia and would catch crabs and bring them home and cook them and we'd eat them!

When I would come back home to Minnesota, most of the kids my age were scared of crabs. :(

I never liked squishy things like squid or octopus. I don't like muscles or scallops or clams either!

I do miss salmon, though. And tuna sometimes.
It's been a few years since I've had any seafood, and since I live in California now, I bet the seafood here is outstanding.

My parents often get fish and chips or go to these fancy seafood restaurants... and I just either don't go along, or if I do go along, I bring my own food

Why were they scared of crabs?

I mean, I understand being scared of 'crabs' but not... crabs

[Mekatra]

Cuz they're pinchy maybe? They look like alien creatures.

oh man, i forgot about clams. i liked eating those as a kid ;3;

dude, if i could eat at a chippy i'd be the size of a house. alas there is a decided difference between wanting to eat something and actually putting it in your mouth

Clams and oysters can be good. I've been enjoying smoked mussels from a can lately, but they seem hard to find.

I think because I grew up in small-town, Minnesota..
So crabs were considered "exotic" food.

[mdom]

Hm, so odd... ever since I was a kid they're 'fancy food' here xD

[littl3chocobo]

crabs are kinda cute

[Kory]

We used to have pet crawfish.
I loved them!

They were really cute.

[Mekatra]

I grew up in the kind of place where crab was considered super fancy too. XD

I used to own hermit crabs and I loved them, but I couldn't bring myself to own any now. They aren't meant to live alone or in small groups. They're meant to live in massive colonies

[mdom]

even though they're hermits? xD

[Mekatra]

Yeah, it's a total misnomer.

[littl3chocobo]

crawfish are cute too

seabugs need more love<3
