Improper Table Manners Needed

After the crawfish boil yesterday for patriot days, I have to say I was quite impressed with UT Tyler’s ability to devour some crawfish. There were however a few stand outs that looked lost with the delicious creatures or some even scared on how to go about eating it. For those special people, I’ve decided to give you a quick guide on how to eat your crawfish. Before you can even eat the crawfish, you have to be prepared, here’s how.
  • First of all, the crawfish is dead. It can’t pinch you so please don’t act all afraid.
  • Secondly, you can’t eat a plate of crawfish and do it cleanly. If you plan on enjoying it, it will get messy! Get napkins, newspapers, whatever.
  • Thirdly, it’s spicy. Please don’t pull a rookie move by having to run back and grab a bottle of cold water to quench the fire. Have it ready!
Now to actually eat the fish.
  • Attack the crawfish. Yes, pull the tail from the body
  • Next, pry apart the shell and get the tail meat
  • Finally, eat the tail and if you choose suck out the juice from the head
  • On to the next one
For full details, go here. Now that you’ve been informed, next year please step up to the challenge. No mercy on the crawfish!

I would also like to add that as the last and final step, you should concentrate REALLY HARD on NOT touching your eyes, nose, or any other part of your body after you finish eating but before you wash all the spices off. Ouch...

CORRECTION: the final step is using the heads as finger puppets.
