I don't even know how to eat them. Are you supposed to chew them? Or just gulp them down?

Or you do like other people in here. You wrap them in bacon, bread and fry them and then brag that you love seafood.

What wine are you going to be pairing your seafood extravaganza with tonight?

I had no idea people wrapped them in bacon. Bacon does make everything better. I like them raw best, had them fried once and would rather have fried clams. Fried oysters is a waste of money.

I JUST PICKED UP A PINOT NOIR FROM A LOCAL VINEYARD. IT'S SO GOOD.

Yeah, fried clams and squid are awesome. Won't waste money on oysters and scallops to cook them like that.

So you just shuck them at home and put some hot sauce on them? But you do chew them correct?

I don't get what the hoopla is about lobster. It's so meh compared to scallops and crab. King crab is expensive as (frank) though, but goddamn is it ever good.

I never put hot sauce on them, cocktail sauce if anything.

Legit just had scallops for the first time last week. Had oysters just before the scallops.

I'm with you on the lobster front. Lobster rolls on the other hand are amazing.

100% agreed. Lobster is overrated IMO.

Snow crab isn't as good as king crab, but it's pretty affordable in season. Love it.

Don't have anywhere around me to get one. Not like the poop I see on Phantom Gourmet.

Two or three times I've called you. Not once did you answer. Go (frank) yourself, you just lost a very prominent friend.

I never knew until a few years ago that you cannot find lobster rolls anywhere but New England. This is (frank)ed up.

I haven't had soft shell crab, so the verdict is still out there for me on that one.

McDonald's makes one up here believe it or not. I broke down and tried one after vowing I wouldn't. There was lobster in it, but not enough obviously. It was more like eating a celery and green onion salad with mayo and a lobster as garnish.

I've only had it in sushi. So that's been in a tempura batter. I can't see myself eating a large one. The whole shell thing is troublesome.

I got your back

I only said that because you hurt me. I thought if I hurt you back I would feel better. But truth is, it hurt me just as much. I'm sorry. You didn't deserve that. You'll always have me.

Jesus that's gross. Panera had one last year, I wouldn't even eat that one. I'd have to reevaluate my life after purchasing a lobster roll from McDonald's.

I saw your shout outs, however it was too late to respond by the time I read them. I don't lurk all the time, you know....

Yeah, I'm not looking forward to it.
