I didn't really get into seafood until I was in my 20's. I got a fish bone stuck in my throat when I was really little, and avoided fish for a very long time after that! But the older I get the more I love seafood.
I have an oyster OBSESSION. I also LOVE dungeness crab. I also love lobster, calamari, shrimp, mussels, clams, most all fish, sushi (but only tuna and sea urchin). It's all so good!
Oddly I don't really like salmon.
Do you love seafood? What will/won't you eat?

Erp, not really. I'll occasionally eat crab, scallops or lobster if I'm somewhere fancy. But its really hard to get good seafood in Dallas, honestly (or, you know, good food in general).
Shellfish isn't kosher so I wasn't exposed to it a bunch growing up since we spent time with a lot of Jewish people, even if we didn't keep strict kosher in my house.
I do like salmon, tilapia, and tuna. A lot.

I do not like lobster...overrated!

I love lobster, crab, and scallops but I don't like most other seafood. DH is allergic to shellfish, so the kind of puts a damper on my love of it! We're from MA, so we get crazy fresh amazing seafood:)

Ugh... I used to HATE everything seafood until I was in my 20s also... But it's a small like that i have.. I really only like shrimp, salmon, and tuna... DH Loves SUSHI, but I can't eat it "too fishy" for me. For our wedding we had orange roughy , and I actually enjoyed it... On occasion I would eat lobster, but would never order it to eat, many other tastier things to eat!! Im not too adventurous in trying new things...

I LOVE shellfish, but I'm not as big a fan of "normal" fish.

I can occasionally eat tilapia or salmon, or fish with a similar taste or texture (the meatier kinds), and fried scallops from a hibachi grill that DH and I go to for special occasions.
I won't touch any other fish or shellfish with a ten foot pole. Not allergic or anything, and I try something every few years (like shrimp in a different way) but I have so much trouble swallowing. Absolutely psychological.

Nope, I hate seafood! Sometimes I can eat the really tiny fried shrimp...if I'm in the right mood, but that's it! We live at the beach, so everyone always thinks I'm so weird.

I love seafood! I'll eat pretty much all of it. We cook lots of salmon at my house. I almost always order a seafood dish when we dine out.

Mmm, I loooove seafood (lobster, clams, oysters, scallops) and am obsessed with sushi. Strangely enough, I don't love cooked fish... only raw, haha. Unless it's something delicious (and expensive) like sea bass, haha!

I LOVE seafood!! so being pregnant and only being able to eat two servings week is not so fun =(
My top favs: lobster, crab, scallops, clams, & uni
by the way - a tip for those of you who love pan seared scallops and want to make them at home... look up Gordon Ramsay's video on youtube. It's totally turns out like restaurant quality and is super easy!!

I loooooove seafood. The only seafood I don't like are sea cucumber, geoduck, jellyfish, and sea urchin. I can eat the last two once in awhile, but not often.
My favorites are sushi (mmmm salmon), dungeness crab, Asian/cajun crawfish and shrimp, and oysters.

Wouldn't be a true New Englander if I didn't love seafood!!! I truly truly miss sushi/sashimi... Wagon Sr. and I both LOVE it.

I truly hate seafood of every kind. The only thing I can tolerate is a tuna fish sandwich.

i love seafood! shellfish is my favorite...shrimp, mussels, clams, oysters (raw only), scallops, lobster, crabs, crayfish, etc etc. fish is good too, but i wouldn't ever say it is ever my top choice for a meal. i like raw fish better than cooked...like sushi or ceviche or tartare. yum!

I love calamari, white fish, salmon, shrimp. I really LOVE sushi though. But I can't stand anything that tastes or smells too "fishy". Makes me gag!

I'm trying to like fish more. I like crab and lobster, salmon (especially en croute), and some whitefisb. The problem with living in the center of the continent is that the fish is never really fresh. I had something in Hawaii and it was so good. I didn't know fish could taste like that.

LUUUURVE me some seafood, I think I'd eat lobster and crab every day if I could! The only thing I can't quite get into for some weird reason is clams...It makes no sense because I love mussels but for some reason, clams don't do it for me...Other than that, fish, shrimp, scallops, shellfish, mmmm!

I grew up eating seafood all the time and now that I live far from the ocean I miss it. Whenever I'm home that's all I eat.
Don't like farmed salmon though, wild caught is delicious. And I don't like shark. Everything else is fair game.

Not really a fan of most seafood. I love shrimp and the little lobster I have had in my lifetime was pretty tasty. I had an a dish with tilapia once that I really liked. Mostly though, I don't like it.

Nope. I can eat some milder fish if it has a lot of seasoning or sauce (like salmon or flounder) but absolutely no shellfish. Everyone can't believe I'm really from Mass when they find out I don't like seafood.

I LOVE seafood! The only thing I won't eat is a fish if it still looks like one (like if it still has a head). Otherwise, I'll eat pretty much all seafood. Actually, I just tried something called a quahog on my recent trip and it was really good, too.
