Langoustine

Langoustine? Eeeeew.

A random re-run of Iron Chef, and there they were. The secret ingredient. The beady-eyed critters. Sitting there on the table and staring at you - only to be split open to reveal a slimy inside, and some stupid symbiotic foamy creature attached to the mouthparts? OMG. Disgusting! And all those tiny little legs? The crunch when they were cutting them open? Eeeeew again.

For the record, I never get put off by the sight of meat. No matter what it is. Clean it, de-bone it, do whatever to it and I don't flinch. But this stupid ye-big sucker got me wanting to puke. The grossest ever. Period.

Here is why I can never go to a culinary school around here, over abundance of weird meats.
