Honestly, somebody needs to introduce the Italians to crab cakes - using $4/pound blue crab as a pasta topping is thinking way too small, if you really want to deal with overpopulation you need to start serving dishes where crab is the main ingredient.

I was about to say, do the crabs taste good? I mean do people who like crab, most seafood makes me throw up. But in general, if you can market things correctly, humans will eat damn near anything into extinction.

Blue crab is basically the best tasting food there is IMO.
