For a long time; crab, lobster, crayfish were seen by the upper class as bugs of the sea and were very inexpensive. It’s only relatively recently did they become hella expensive. My 8th birthday party, I remember getting a pound of snow crab legs (including sides) for $6.99 at a nice seafood restaurant. I was born in the 90s, so it wasn’t that long ago!
Til: insects and shellfish are basically the same thing.
Not just shellfish! They’re all part of the arthropod family! So that would also include lobsters and crabs!
Shrimps is bugs
