Sean, When my daughter was 3 yrs old, We bought a Blue crayfish for the fish tank, and she named it "Dinner"

More proof your a Southie, 3 year olds up here call them bugs.

Those are the nastiest things to eat I’ve ever tried. I’ll stick to the okra.

Only time I've ever had the opportunity to try crawdads was on the buffet at a Deadwood casino. They tasted a lot like I imagine mud would taste. I'm not a picky person. I'm pretty adventurous when It comes to food and ready to work at developing a taste for unfamiliar flavors. But these tasted mucky. I assume they weren't prepared properly, but .

They need to be in clean fresh water for at least a week to 'clean' them out...if not they will taste like mud.

I love that area. Mines, caves, Town of Deadwood, Lead. I was there and saw Deadwood as a pioneer town, way before any casinos were built, ( I miss the Black Hills! )

I had crayfish bisque at a cajun restaurant called Lagniappe in Marquette. it was delicious, but I'm sure they knew how to cook them properly, everything they cooked was fabulous.

The Cajuns came from eastern Canada. They were called Acadians and were pushed out by the British, in Le Grand Dérangement. They were forced to become Southies against their will.
