Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWTF is the deal with Saudi King Salmon?
I didn't even know we imported seafood from Saudi in the first place, but... King Salmon?
I mean, good golly, he was just up in Alaska, and look what the King Salmon did to him there:
They could have loaded up Air Force One with all the King Salmon they wanted. I see no reason to be making such a big deal about importing them from a place that doesn't even have rivers.

(62,444 posts)7. Yeah. I know. King Crab kinda sucks
Those of us in the Chesapeake region are spoiled that way.
elleng
(130,895 posts)9. Yes we are.
Wish I weren't home alone. Not much fun to 'do crabs' this way.

(62,444 posts)11. That's when you go out to a place with picnic tables
You know the ones. Rectangular white cinder block places on a muddy flat near a creek, with a screened deck, picnic tables covered with brown paper, cold beer, and all-you-can eat night. Go alone and you'll probably end up finding someone who likes the parts you don't. And even if not, you don't have to clean up.

Family used to compare who was the neatest and messiest crab eater/beater!!!

(62,444 posts)13. Yeah, thinking of them as spiders kinda creeps me out
I'll be on my third beer and my sixth crab, and I'll look down and think "Jesus, I'm eating spiders. Wtf?"

(33,688 posts)18. That's why you drink the beer.
It all balances out.
