💨 Abstract

The article is predominantly about a viral video where a woman cooks live blue crabs in an air fryer, sparking ethical debates. The manager of Bethesda Crab House, Yen Lee, recommends a humaner method: slowing the crab's metabolism with ice, then "spiking" it to destroy its central nervous system before boiling. Lee asserts that quicker killing methods produce better-tasting crab meat.
