Many elderly people do not eat crayfish. The crayfish in the 1980s really lived in the gutter as the media said, but the survival rate of most crayfish in the hypoxic gutter was extremely low. At present, many local governments support the raising of crayfish for income generation, and the cultivation and export of large quantities of crayfish. It also raises the value of crayfish, making it unaffordable for ordinary working-class people. It's the holiday, no matter what, you have to be worthy of your own mouth! But because crayfish live in mud; there is too much mud on their bodies.

Tips:
Attention! A pound of shrimp balls can only be peeled in half, so 2000 grams of shrimp balls is not much. When buying crayfish, the color is too bright, it was washed with shrimp powder. The tongs of the corroded crayfish are almost missing or have fallen off. The head of the crayfish should be discarded. The head of the crayfish absorbs heavy metals and bacteria. When buying a crayfish, look for its clean and shiny back, fluffy abdomen, and vellus hair on its paws, which are white and red. This is cultivated in clean fresh water.
