ANyone else weird out by Soft Shell Crabs?

I know it's suppose to be good, heck I even tried to ordered some deep fried on a sandwich. But seeing it legs sticking out like that just give me the heebie jeebes.
I have no problem with Oysters, none with Crawfish or lobsters. Crabs I prefer to break open the shell and eat it but Soft shell ones just look like deep fried wolf spiders to me...

I get weirded out when I can't have any.

What weirds me out is that almost all restaurants don't wash the crap out before frying them. It's lazy. Only place I found that does them right is sportsman Paradise in Cocodrie. Otherwise I just fry them at home

One of my most favorite things to eat. I love them.

I love them. Wish I had a plate full of them now.

Yes, I am weirded out by them but other things like you said don't bother me

Not a big fan of them myself as I find them fishy. Maybe I haven't had a good one yet.

The legs are the best part. It's like crab French fries. The middle part sometimes will give me trouble if the shell is a touch too thick and feels like a layer of plastic, but they're delicious.

I just don't like the texture of them.

If I could only eat one thing the rest of my days....soft crabs it would be.

You mean the yellow fat?
I have a hook-up on soft shells. I get them for $1 each. They not big and some don't have all their legs but I still eat them.

Yeah the fat that turns green and gritty when it's fried. Nasty.

I was visiting my cousin one time. Her husband is a shrimper with a huge boat. Well since company was over she cleaned her freezer out of soft shells and fried them up. She walked in with a big roasting pan piled high with fried crabs. I will never forget that sight.
