@theunkowndeity: I've never heard of a shrimp infestation Crabs, lobsters, shrimp and insects are all arthropods, meaning they share features like jointed limbs and hard exoskeletons. Crustaceans and insects are actually relatively close evolutionary relatives within the larger arthropod family. The difference isn't that insects are filled with "goop." Many insects contain substantial amounts of protein and fat and are regularly eaten around the world. Our different attitudes toward them are largely cultural, while larger crustaceans also make it much easier to separate edible muscle from the exoskeleton. #fyp
