What are yalls thoughts of crawfish and how clean they are.
they seem to be low in fats and carbs. I’m sure high in sodium because of how they are cooked. Just got curious cause it’s crswfish season and I eat a lot of it
being down here in Texas. Curious to see what y’all think.

The hard part is staying away from the beer for me especially if I’m Arnold a crawfish boil I will kill some beers and get blitzed. Then my bumhole leaks the next day

Dietary cholesterol is of no importance. They are basically pure protein and high in Omega 3s. Eat away! I love the bastards!

Don't eat things that come out of the water. They are no good for you. (Snake-science)

Did it come out of a cellophane wrapped box? No? It's clean eating then.

I liked them as a kid dragging a net into the weeds, but now they seem to taste like mud just like a catfish!

I love crawfish. Had the best crawfish down in Louisiana. Everyone does catfish frys up here in Iowa since we are on the Mississippi. Have to let the catfish sit in your bath tub to clean them up a little bit. Otherwise taste like mud.

I live in South Louisiana and I only eat them once per year. Aside from cholesterol and sodium, as long as they are boiled, it is better for you than crawfish etouffee with a ton of rice.

Have a few around here, we have identified 4 species of them, but they aren't hugely abundant. I don't ever pass up an opportunity to eat the little bastards when presented.

if you don't salt purge them before boiling, they will taste like mud... they are called mudbugs for a reason lol
