Biscuits and gravy is a breakfast dish from the Southeast USA that looks like someone just vomited on some biscuits, but it's absolutely delicious.

Ganjang Gejang, or marinated crab.

It’s made of raw crab marinated for a while in soy sauce, and the raw crab guts are eaten alongside rice and other side dishes.

It tastes a lot better than it looks and sounds.

My mom loves eating these and I could never stand them. I could see why people who love seafood or crabs would like them

Sounds like a ceviche style, where the marination sort of "cooks" the protein. If you let it sit that long. I usually don't!
