Should we be eating the shells of the king crab legs? I keep thinking of Daryl Hannah and how Ive probably been eating it wrong all these years. Did I deprive my family by removing the crab meat from the shells before supper?

Yes...exactly. Of course you should be eating the shells. Don't be wasteful.
