I wonder what those isopods taste like, inasmuch as they are distantly related to shrimp and lobster.

(* VERY distantly. They are far closer related to pillbugs, and no closer to shrimp than a cow is to a fish.)

They do actually taste like crab/shrimp/lobster. Watched them eaten on youtube and described that way.

“they are distantly related to shrimp and lobster”

Isn’t the cockroach also related to lobster?

“I wonder what those isopods taste like”
About a week ago, I was watching a food show.
They had a tank of isopods on sale at some seafood place and the chef bought a couple for a few hundred dollars each.
They prepared them like they were lobsters.
Then ate them. They said they didn’t have much flavor at all.
