  Anyway, I just discovered that English has the same word for the crabs that walk on the ground and the ones that swim around. Those taste completely differently.

  Please describe the difference

    Yeah, I can’t describe that one. But people don’t even eat the same parts of those crabs.

    Portuguese: “carangueijo” vs. “sirí”

    Apparently, the later are a single family:

    The first is a very general name. But AFAIK, people eat those:
