LOL, because they ate crabs means they were more civilized or advanced????
I was at a conference years ago in Baltimore, and I went out to dinner to a crab house with a large group of other attendees from around the nation, none of which had ever eaten crabs before.
Having grown up in Maryland and Virginia catching and eating Blue Crabs, I was all in from the moment the crabs were delivered to the table, smashing the crabs with the mallet, breaking them open then rapaciously eating them, while everyone else who had never eaten crabs before (in that fashion) probably looked at me in amazement, horror, and disgust!
I had a giant mountain of dismembered and smashed crab remains piled in front of me, and the detritus from the ravenously devoured crabs was all over my hands, arms, and probably my face too.
I have no doubt they had me classified as a Neanderthal after watching that display!
I don’t much care for seafood.
I must be a caveman.
