I hope they boiled the plastic seasoning bag just to really make this a cursed meal.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Either that or they threw in somebody's leopard print coin purse in the upper left.

[–] MattsAlt@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I kept looking at that trying to figure out what it was. When my creole uncle used to make these boils the stuff was covered in seasoning after being dumped out. Not even a speck of pepper on this is incredibly sad

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 35 points 2 years ago (3 children)

no seasoning or butter or anything? pickles?? mf ravioli?????

[–] Posadas@hexbear.net 28 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Don't forget about the raw garlic and string beans.

I also see what looks like half of a lemon in the top left. I just noticed the brussels sprouts too lol

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

oh god why oh god

[–] AutomatedPossum@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

I'm assuming they just squeezed the lemon over everything after pouring the pot out, and given all the other shit that's going on there it's honestly one of the more normal things they did.

[–] Aradina@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Brussel sprouts are great.. when cooked well and seasoned in literally any way that is

[–] TyMan210@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

When I was growing up in poverty, a favorite meal to make myself was to cook a box of pasta, dump in a bag of frozen brussels sprouts in the last minute or so of cooking, and then mix it all together with some teriyaki sauce. Not the best or the healthiest, but it would make two meals worth of food for like $2 lol.

[–] Aradina@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

That's a classic. And you can swap out the sauce to change the flavour a bit if you want variety.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

I'm not even willing to give them benefit of the doubt on pickles looks like these mf's boiled cucumber green beams and Brussel sprouts in there.

[–] regul@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The seasoning is in the boiling liquid.

I see full potatoes, ok, wait, with eyes growing? Umm. Green sprouting potatoes are toxic, especially the eye part, right?

[–] MarxGuns@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Toxic but more like a tummy ache toxic unless you are a child or bug (afaik). It's kinda like how Tomatoes have toxins in their stem and leaves and a tiny bit in their fruit but it's ok.

[–] Hexbear2@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately, more toxic than that. Green potatoes contain high amounts of solanine,; its toxic. I can't eat potatoes because I've had solanine poisoning from eating green potatoes and now any amount of potato skin triggers hives.

i already know there's not a pinch of Old Bay on that table

[–] buttwater@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

As a im-vegan sometimes i see pictures of meat that look good and I feel conflicted. This is not one of those times 🤮

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago

White people moment.

Carnism is a brain disease

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You claim to oppose carnism, and yet you object to people throwing pasta in with their crawfish.

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

my brain simply refused to see the ravioli until you pointed it out, and i'll never forgive you

[–] HexbearGPT@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pickles and ravioli?!?!? Lmao way to ruin some perfectly good crawfish homie haha

[–] Posadas@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Don't worry, they have an unused spice bag siting on it and raw garlic scattered about.

[–] BioWarfarePosadist@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What is that thing in the middle, is it a full crab? What is that thing in the middle? A crab?

[–] BioWarfarePosadist@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

[–] LeninsBeard@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Dehydrated Mayo

[–] Huldra@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

it's ok they put cajun spice mix in it, so its not british

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

Is that asparagus and French beans?

[–] FnordPrefect@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well there's your problem: somebody confused the Krabby Patty formula with the ritual to read the Krabby Patty formula

I can't think of a worse way to prepare food. More than half that food is going to waste, so nasty and disgusting. I'm going to invent a time machine, find the mother of the person who came up wtih seafood boil, and teach her to teach her child not to play with his food.

Then I'm going to do something more productive with that food, like not mix it with animals from the sea.
