    Seafood is part of her culture originally being from a port city, which is fine for me. I personally don’t eat crab just for “ethical” reasons, but also because overall it’s a lot of work for little payoff. Like you said, I just find something else to eat.

      Maybe worth reminding her of that option too. A lot of people do things for culture because they feel like they are required or supposed to, even if they might feel better not taking part in certain practices
