What looks, tastes, and smells like seafood, but doesn’t come from the sea? It’s crawfish, a freshwater shellfish that is surely a Louisiana delicacy. Call them Crawfish, Crawdads, Crayfish, or Mudbugs they are all the same!
Louisiana is the largest domestic producers of crawfish. Roughly 130-150 Million pounds a season are harvested by roughly 1600 Louisiana farmers.
Watch the 6 minute video if you are interested in how the farmers produce Rice and Crawfish in the same farm. Next time you are thinking about a Clam bake, or having a Crab feed… consider ordering a 30 pound bag of Crawfish for a delicious and different dinner. Pinch the Tails and Suck the Heads and enjoy!
