Enjoy Crab Season Safely!

Crab season is here, and while they’re delicious and nutritious, eating crabs has its do’s and don’ts. Here’s how to avoid the “crab traps”:

🚫 Parts to Avoid:

Crab gills, heart, stomach, and intestines—these parts may contain harmful substances.
❌ Dead or Raw Crabs:

Never eat dead crabs—harmful toxins develop quickly.
Avoid raw crabs, as they may carry bacteria or parasites.
⚠️ Food Pairings to Skip:

🫚 No tea or persimmons with crab—they cause indigestion.
❄️ Avoid overly cold foods—crabs are naturally “cold” in nature.
💡 Pro Tip: Add ginger or perilla leaves to your meal to balance the cooling effect of crab.

Moderation is key! Overeating crabs, especially if you have a sensitive stomach, can cause discomfort. Stay safe and enjoy the season’s delicacy! 😊🦀
