I can eat it, but I wouldn't want to be stuck on a deserted island.

Fish I can tolerate.

Never been able to eat shellfish.

Give me a steak, lamb, or chicken any time.

You sound like my kind of woman.
Except for the cutting people up bit. :-)

The surgeon bit or the serial killer bit?

We call them prawns.
We eat them boiled. :-)

Fucking Christ, boiling shrimp, that's worse than abusing the Queen's English as you do. Sautee those bastards in butter with a litle thyme and basil, some salt and pepper, and if your tongue likes it a bit of hot sauce.

Boiling!?!

I can't stand seafood.

'Tis a mood thing for me. Until a couple of weeks ago I hadn't had seafood in years, literally -- five, maybe six, I don't care enough to count. Had a gal come over and cook for me, we wanted company more than food so decided on simple, and she made perhaps the best shrimp Scampi I've ever had.

Not the best company, but goddamn that was some good eatin'.

Some people... can't stand seafood?!
tsk tsk tsk...
In Portugal there are restaurants dedicated to shellfish - shrimp, tiger prawn, crayfish, lobster, spider crab, brown crab... and a few other specialties...
Now, the part you may like... these restaurants usually have tanks where they keep the beasties alive and you can pick out which one you want to eat.


Personally, I'm more of a beef person, too.... but I won't say no to those sea bugs!

I boil shrimp all the time with crab legs and chipotle peppers I dash of sazón Goya...pour the result over nice hot Mexican fried rice. Mmm my stomach is growling now

I hear y'all are talking about seafood. I have barely eaten seafood but I really want to eat lobster, it sounds and looks delicious. However I've somewhere eaten half a boiled egg with some kind of creamy cream on it and a shrimp on top it was delicious.

meh.... tastes a bit like shrimp, but is less juicy, less fatty.
