yes you can eat shellfish even though it is full of bacteria and other unknown species it is still safe to eat them because when they get sent to stores the people clean them real nice and goo before they sell them to people so i think that it is very well safe to eat shellfish

Keep it alive in the refrigerator and then fry it in a pan in some butter with Old Bay on it. It helps to put something to help it fry evenly on it such as cornmeal or a breading/batter before adding the seasoning. Then you can either put it on a sandwich(my favorite) or just eat it plain.

It is also good to fry in fatback instead of butter. YUM!

I live in MD on the bay so I eat a lot of soft-crabs.
