Many may be turned off by the thought of this dish but this is absolutely a delicacy. Is not sucking crawfish heads considered a delicacy. Yep this sure can be debatable; we can switch the subject to Brain Quotes from http://www.saidwhat.co.uk/keywordquotes/brain A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist.- Louis Nizer If little else, the brain is an educational toy. - Tom Robbins I'm no bimbo. I'm opinionated and I do have a brain... Christina Aguilera Books, the children of the brain.- Jonathan Swift (Maw Maw Favorite) Sometimes, God gives you physical talent and takes away the brain.- Mike Ditka You must capture and keep the heart of the original and supremely able man before his brain can do its best. Andrew Carnegie In the scales of the destinies, brawn will never weigh so much as brain. James Russell Lowell
