DeadFishFloating Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Actually the southern ocean where these crabs are coming from produces seafood very low in heavy metals. Hence why there are so many poacher fleets from poluted northern hemisphere nations down there. interestingly the crab fauna is changing with the climate BBC News - Giant crabs make Antarctic leap The giant crabs invading Antarctica - The Week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matmatmat Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Really, cool I was just guessing now I'm standing by my awesome feast statement! Have you seen land of the lost? I'm thinking kinda like the scene in the desert... They eat some kind of hallucinogen by a pool and feast on giant crab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Claude weighs a mighty 15lbs and measures 15 inches wide and would have produced 20lbs worth of meat Sorry, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadFishFloating Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Sorry, what? yea I thought the same thing, I mean its a pom news story so do we have to work out how much meat a pound buys and then times that by 20 to get its weight. I mean thats how you would find out how much $2 worth of chips weighs so I spose it would work to find out how much £20 worth of crab weighs. seems a bit complicated though why couldnt they just give us the weight of the crab meat and save us all the maths?

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 You're not wrong there DFF, but what I was really trying to figure out was how can the crab weigh less than the amount of meat it can produce, does it have some kind of helium meat that weighs negative lbs?

Yodapwnsasmurf Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 1lb of crab meat costs £200, $254.549 . So, for £20, you should be able to buy .1lb of crab meat. $440 per kg. Most expensive crab meat ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
