re: People who use crawfish dip bastardize the crawfish boil and should be asked to leave.

I agree with the "live and let live" approach here. My wife dips the tails in a ketchup & mayo mixture, without fail, but I never did so and probably never will.

That being said, she enjoys the sauce, and crawfish boils are about passing a good time. No harm, no foul.

Plus, I have seen enough people use dipping sauce at crawfish boils over the years to know that it's not some sort of egregiously outrageous affront to culinary good taste.

So I say if you likes it, go ahead and eats it.
