At the end of the day, I can deal with pretty much any way you want to cook/season them, as long as they're not overcooked. If they don't peel well, I'm raising hell.
That's how I am. I just prefer my own. Which is how just about everyone is

Same with gumbos. I don't eat gumbo at restaurants for this very reason. I prefer my gumbo and the gumbo my dad made - that's it.

Agree with some of the responses...couldn't put my finger on why they looked weird but i think it's the total lack of seasoning....

I love all this crawfish chatter. Yes, I prefer spicy seasoning on my boils of all kinds, especially crawfish. But the Sweet MN family with their little kids are gathering DELICIOUS local mudbugs and they season only the water and serve with butter. U hv to c the show to get it
In their defense, they probably don't need as much seasoning since I doubt dishes have as much seasoning as down south.

most yankees steam seafood and throw dry seasonings on top so you season it as you touch the meat with your fingers 
that looks very anemic and i would guess they arent boiled "properly"

I mean the corn almost looks fake.
Corn from a crawfish boil should look like a 75 year old woman from Lafourche Parish.

I don't know if I've ever known disappointment as great as when I was lined up to get some crawfish one time at a boil and they pulled the corn out of a separate container and it was boiled completely separately from the crawfish.

I Don’t know anything about crawfish. What is wrong with them?

They should be boiled in water that is absolutely filled with seasoning and other fixins. This shite was boiled in clear water. Bland.

I'm just happy he didn't call them "Crayfish"

That shite probably tastes like hot dog water.

I just wanted to say I've never seen the term "clear water" as much as I have in this thread my entire life.

No sprinkles there, everyone here should be happy as hell.

those crawfish look translucent and sickly, not bright or bold red, to even a dark color red. could be bad photo editing, i guess?

I've had boiled crawfish in Finland. It is unseasoned and translucent. Very strange texture although the flavor is somewhat familiar.

It essentially melts on the crawfish.
IF its done right. and sadly enough, most don't do it right

It is a different species of crawfish. Those are white crawfish. They don't taste the same. Claws look different. That is why they aren't real red after boiling. Could be seasoned, but probably not.
If a wholesaler saw those in your sacks he wouldn't buy them or they would be sent straight to the processing plant and downgrade your price. New Orleans buyers would blackball you to anyone and everyone they know.
Ponds used to produce a lot of white crawfish, but could only be sold to the processors or direct to friends, people who didn't know better, etc. Many restocked with spillway after the season. After a few years, their ponds would turn. Several years back in the guise of helping the rice farmer the State killed a whole bunch of the seed crawfish in the ponds. They restocked with spillway, making their product more marketable. There are some white crawfish still, but not as much as before.
