is there a bigger memefood than mussels? who even eats these? i put it on the same level as caviar or or pinapple on pizza. people literally only eat this food when other people are watching or so they can poste a picture of it, showing that they ate it
thoughts?

You're retarded. I personally don't like them, but that doesn't mean no one should like them. You're just a faggot who thinks no one should like food you don't like.
Did your grocery store just start carrying limes last year, OP?
You're an idiot.
Some people don't like mussels, but they're eaten all over the world, and they're one of the cheapest seafoods you can buy, while also being fucking delicious. Mussels au Pernod is one of my top10 favorite dishes. Learn to live a little, OP.
thhhbbphthhhhh duuhehhhhhh
not an argument retards
This. Mussels are delicious and they're cheap as fuck, plus they make their own broth.
These threads are so fucking retarded. Is it really that hard for you austistic fuck to believe some people like things you don't? Go fuck yourself, fucking cretin
>I don't like it
>Meme food
Not a thread retard
poeple LITERALLY only cook them because they watched a gordon ramsey youtube video and it makes them look 'professional' to their white familes cooking them in a big pan on the kitchen stove. i know i'm right
That's funny, because my grandparents live by the ocean and have been eating them since before Gordon Ramsay was born. If you think everyone watches fucking Gordon Ramsay, you're even more retarded than we originally thought!
Why are people even replying?
OP is so obviously a bored kid just shitposting/baiting on his day off from middleschool.
Let it die.
1. I don't watch Gordon Ramsay, he's a stupid twat.
2. I've been eating mussels since before you were born, since I was a small child. (You, apparently, still ARE a small child).
3. Mussels are fucking easy as fuck to cook, being able to cook mussels is basic bitch tier cooking, it doesn't make anyone look professional.
4. You're a moron.
...
Have you had them cooked with white wine, some shallots, butter, and bacon? Or are you eating them raw like some fucking savage?
They're also really high in some vitamins that are difficult to get from eating muscle meat and produce/grains.
good for movies if you steam a big ol bag of em and they cook at the same time as crab legs
Mussels are like clams and oysters in that they're very perishable, and a bad one can make pretty sick. Even with today's technology eating them at all is a little absurd if you don't live right on the coast. Even then being particular about how they are sourced is a good idea. They're not for the squeamish or careless.
>tfw I'm the designated mussel cleaner every year for christmas eve
>have to scrub 10 lbs of mussels
Mussels may be cheap but they arent something I would make all the time. Still worth it though the few times we make them.
mussels a fucking delicious with garlic, wine, butter and crusty bread, you plebeian.
Don't forget the fresh lemon juice!
Wen I lived at home with my parents we uses to have some mussels every 1 or 2 weeks.
Just a coule of cans of pic related with crackers as a snack before lunch. They are pretty good. They are even better when paired with a hopsy lager or a good spanish cider.
forgot pic
>don't like shellfish all that much
>mussels are actually delicious
>cheap as fuck and sustainable
Thanks based bivalve
Few things in life aren't delicious with garlic, wine, butter, and crusty bread...
>1. I don't watch Gordon Ramsay, he's a stupid twat.
This. Shameful to even really think about him, ever, even in a cooking forum. He's a hack with wet brain.
Some of my favorite wine pairing kind of moments in life where food was divine while having a great time has been when mussels were served and I don't honestly gush over seafood as anything exotic and that flipping good. But, I can count on one hand how great those little suckers suck of broth and goodness. From coconut milk curried mussels with amazing amounts of lemongrass to moules frites with garlic and white wine to chorizo and smoked paprika making it sing. They're fussy because you should clean them, and lovingly inspect each one, so yea, it's for people who aren't looking to pig out necessarily, just want every luscious morsel to be satisfying.
Mussels existed a long time before the internet in a strange time where people ate because they enjoyed the experience and sustainance of food.
op needs to relax and let his mussels loosen up
