    Cuba's crabs have been more than enough to occupy the people's place of residence, here is located in the Caribbean Sea of North America, is an archipelagic country, the shape of Cuba Island is very similar to the crocodile, so it is called the "green crocodile of the Caribbean", Cuba has more than 1,600 islands, its territorial area ranks first in the West Indies, the coastline is winding and long, the central and eastern mountains are predominant, the hills are distributed in the western region, and most of the rest of the area is relatively flat, Cuba has a tropical rainforest climate with the exception of the leeward slopes of the southwestern coast, and the temperature is suitable, making it an excellent place for crabs to grow.

    The majestic army of crabs will leave the forest after the Spring Festival and migrate to the sea, at this time there will always be the phenomenon of crabs dominating the road, drivers will either take a detour, or can only "go forward", the road will always be covered with the carcasses of the crushed crabs, and even the smell of decay, they will also occupy the magpie's nest and run to the homes of residents, therefore, local people must close the doors and windows to prevent these "intruders" from visiting.

    Moreover, these crabs are almost not eaten, first of all, because they are too small, and they are not enough to stuff their teeth if they eat, and the practice is cumbersome, and the gains outweigh the losses, and secondly, someone has investigated this kind of crabs, one theory is that these crabs belong to the red emperor crab, which is poisonous and has great harm to the human digestive system, and the other theory is that they belong to the red crabs of Christmas Island, and there is no definite understanding of them, so few people try them, how?

    Westerners generally don't eat freshwater shrimp because they feel that freshwater shrimp eat sludge and are not clean, so they only eat sea crabs. And the crabs that are flooded in Cuba are hairy crabs among freshwater crabs, so they don't eat them.

    China has thousands of years of food culture, so that foreign friends envy, although, we have no taboos on eating, but we eat very rational, ambitious, quality, taste, feelings, that is to say, eat out of art, eat out of culture, eat out of the future, eat particularly particular.

    Each region has its own eating habits and customs. Cubans don't eat red crab because Cuba doesn't have the same complex eating habits and cooking methods as China's. As we all know, Cuban red crabs are also called red ground crabs.

    This crab is generally found in South Asia, Southeast Asia. Red crabs contain a special acid that can damage human mucous membranes. Of course, it's not impossible to eat, but just like fugu, it has to be cooked in a special way, and it is very delicious.

    I remember a song that went like this: "I want to ask you how you are, how are you eating now?" "This song is a good revelation of the feelings of foodies, and I remember one of the advertising slogans that said:

    Good teeth, good appetite! "Haha! When has our appetite not been good, eating all over the world is the ideal and pursuit of the Chinese, and it proves China's strength.

    You know, Cuba is not a very developed country. Moreover, the eating habits of Cubans do not have a variety of cooking methods for handling crabs like China, and Cubans have a slow pace of life, and do not want to make too complicated food, and often pursue convenient and fast food and cooking methods, so red crabs are troublesome to make, and of course Cubans do not like to eat them.

    As for Cuban crabs, why is no one eating them? This is a test of people's wisdom and discipline, however, the foodie friends upstairs are literati, and they have done a good job of interpreting this, explaining the name and attributes of the Cuban crab, it is called red ground crab, it is not edible, and eating it will bring adverse reactions to the body, otherwise, without exception, we have to change the way of eating, injection and medicine "Nicholas Tse".

    The same is true of the Cuban crab plague. The food culture of Europeans and Americans is relatively simple, fast and convenient, and they do not want to spend effort on handling food. For example, crayfish is eaten in foreign countries, because it is troublesome to handle, and there is not much meat, only Chinese regard it as a treasure.

    Recently mentioned, in addition to the crabs that are rampant in Cuba, there are also Danish oysters. In the eyes of our people, these two delicacies, which are relatively expensive and delicious, are unexpectedly unpopular in the eyes of foreigners, which really makes us feel incredible.

    After these two news, some netizens joked: You can go to Denmark in the summer vacation to enjoy the beautiful scenery while eating oysters, and then go to Cuba to nibble on the big crabs in autumn in the eleventh week.

    In fact, let's think calmly or think about it, if you really put Cuban crabs in front of you, will you dare to eat them with confidence?

    The crab epidemic in Cuba is a complex factor. In addition to the difference in eating habits and processing methods, I am afraid that food safety is also a reason why crabs in western Zhejiang can run rampant. At present, the life of Cuban people is still relatively not rich, especially in food materials, it can be said that most of them need to be imported, and as an island country, the shortage of vegetables is also a common thing.

    Contamination of seafood is even more worrying than that of various edible products grown on land. Around China's coastline, the pollution of various heavy metals, oils, and drugs is also becoming more and more severe.

    Seafood that is closely related to our diet may cause dietary hazards mainly in five aspects: parasites, heavy metals, well-known germs, allergies and intolerances.

    Here's my advice as a nutritionist: be cautious about eating seafood.

    Compared with the nutritional value of seafood, contaminated seafood is much more harmful. Ignorant edible seafood is very likely to bring great harm to the body. Crabs, shrimps, shellfish and other seafood carry more germs, which can cause diarrhea and vomiting in mild cases and life-threatening in worst cases.

    Friends with high blood uric acid, gout, impaired liver and kidney function, as well as children, and people with allergies, especially should abstain from eating seafood.

    Here will be a friend asking, you say so, then don't eat seafood, then what can be replaced by the nutrients in it? The meat, eggs, and soy products we eat daily are rich in protein, which is no less than that in seafood. B vitamins and minerals, which are also abundant in meat.

    The polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin A in seafood that we generally talk about are generally rich in a small part of deep-sea fish. It is very low in crabs and shellfish. So there is no need to worry about the health of your body if you don't eat seafood.

    Every animal creature has its unique habits, especially in nature, many animal groups maintain the habit of migration, once this vast migration army is formed, it is so spectacular.

    Recently, millions of crabs have appeared on the streets of the province of Matasar, Cuba, all of them from terrestrial forests, and the purpose of this large battle is to go to the seaside habitat to spawn.

    It can be seen through the ** on the Internet that each of these mighty crab armies is black and red, and has long eight legs, walking on the road, these crabs all look arrogant and domineering, opening their sharp and hard pincers. Especially when they cross the road in groups, they really seem to be overbearing. However, because these crabs have broken into the gathering place of human life, they are often crushed to death by passing cars when they walk on the road, and at the same time, many birds are attracted to use their crushed bodies as food.

    It is reported that a large number of migratory groups of crabs appear in Cuba at this time of year, because they come to the beach in groups to lay eggs, but also many tourists have no place to stand, and even these crabs try to invade the local people's homes, causing trouble to the local residents. Even so, the mighty army of crabs appeared in the gathering place of human beings, but the local people were afraid that these crabs were poisonous, and did not choose to hunt, maybe there were also locals who had tried the delicacy of these crabs, which should also belong to the kind of unpalatable species, otherwise these varieties would really not be so flooded.

    However, for such a spectacular crab migration spectacle in Cuba, many domestic netizens have also said that these crabs can be prepared in a variety of cooking methods, and many people feel really distressed to see these swarms of crabs being crushed to death by cars.

    This crab is not an ordinary crab that people see in their daily lives, but a kind of red ground crab. In the body of this crab, there is a toxin that the human body cannot metabolize, in other words, once people eat a certain amount of red ground crab in their stomachs, it is possible to be poisoned. This is the main reason why red ground crab cannot be made into a table delicacy.

    Real crabs are delicious and delicious, and sea crabs are good. In particular, Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are even more delicious. The Cuban red crab is poisonous, and even if it is not poisonous, it tastes bad, and it is difficult to eat a hairy crab in China.

    This is a problem of the customs and habits of the people of a country, for example, everything can be eaten in our country, but European and American countries do not think so, and the lawns and green belts of our communities are eager to be reclaimed to grow vegetables and grains. And in foreign countries, it will become a green belt, which is the difference in people's perceptions.

    When it comes to crabs, everyone must be familiar with them, especially in this season of high autumn and coolness, when the hairy crabs in Yangcheng Lake are the fattest, for people who have mines at home, how can they miss such a good crab festival! However, it seems that except for China, there is no other country where people can have such a persistent pursuit of crabs, and it is precisely because of this that many countries are often overwhelmed by the infestation of crabs. In Cuba and Australia, where red crab infestations are often plagued by local infestations, Cubans are particularly afraid of red crabs, while Australians have special legislation to protect them, despite the severe impact of the red crab infestation on the lives of the local population.

    It is understood that the current red crab in the world is generally divided into two species, one is the land red crab, a land crab that is only found on Christmas Island and Cocoa Island in the Indian Ocean. Although only found in a relatively small area, it is estimated that there may be about 120 million red crabs living there, making it the largest of the 14 land crab species on Christmas Island. There is also the Christmas Island red crab, which is the red crab that floods Australia several times a year.

    <> this red crab mainly feeds on fallen leaves, fruits, flowers, trees and trees, and especially prefers fresh leaves, which can be eaten even in the absence of food. But in addition to being "vegetarian", red crabs can also eat other dead crabs and dead birds, and even African giant snails and human garbage. Although red crabs can live on land, they also prefer a humid environment, and maintaining humidity is a very important task for red crabs, who are very sensitive to humidity.

    However, despite this, red crabs still prefer to be active during the day, and are almost inactive at night in low temperatures and high humidity.

    In Cuba, the climate and environment of the local tropical rainforest provide an excellent place for the growth of red crabs, every year after the Spring Festival, there will be an army of red crabs leaving from the forest to the sea, a huge number of red crabs swarming, bringing a serious impact on the lives of Cuban people, not only will occupy the road to make pedestrians and vehicles impassable, but also run to the homes of residents to interfere with people's lives, so that Cubans are frightened, but because this red crab is born with toxins, and grow extremely small, so basically no one dares to eat, I can only let a large number of red crabs flood here.

    And the same is true in Australia. On Australia's Christmas Island, October and November are the rainiest months of the year, and it is also the spawning season for red crabs, which migrate to the coast during this time. Not only will the locals not be troubled by the flood of red crabs, but during the migration, the local ** in Australia will also take some measures to protect the red crabs, close the road, and even the "special channel" for red crabs, the purpose is to minimize the ** of red crabs, so that they can successfully complete the reproduction of the major events because Australian law stipulates that inland fish, shrimp, and crabs cannot be caught.

    And for Christmas Island, the annual migration of red crabs also brings a unique scenery to the local area, and people can't bear to hurt them.

Of course, you can eat it after killing, but I don't think the meat quality of the wild boar is very good, and the smell is unpleasant, so I personally don't think it's necessary to eat it.
