Seafood is one of the few things that the everyday person still handles live before consuming, it's kinda fun! This reminded me of my shellfish class. I had a HUGE bowl of Mussels in front of me that, if they were open, I had to tap to see if they were alive. They closed immediately if so, and were tossed if there was no response. My friend and I sat there tapping, saying "ALLOO IS HOME? NO?". It was a great class except I was told I'd be asked to leave for a few minutes if I kept creating dialogue for the lobster we were being lectured on and about to cook!!! It was silly, but it really was covering it's eyes and getting nervous. We had to calm it down by "petting" it or "stroking" it's back shell. It was a totally different experience, and surprisingly fun for a recovering vegetarian!Samiejohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02847683868501511108noreply@blogger.com
