I have realized the Maryland equivalent of a pig pickin': the crab feast.
Behold the little wooden mallets we use to crack open the crab shell. After a successful entry, we begin to pick apart the body for meat, being sure to avoid the parts that will make us sick. We eagerly eat the tiny pieces of meat that are the rewards of our work.
We dissect our food to eat it. This is not much better than the southern-style pig pickin' (note: I have learned it is not a "pig picking").
I have composed a haiku:
Small, wooden mallet,
Help me dissect this large crab.
Is the work worth it?
