the deep sea crab does looks amazing though, now just to find out where these critters are centered and maybe we can get a hint to the depths and an idea of the type of sea plant or animal.

It's a website for a dermatologist. It seems real to me, if badly designed. ^^

It's kind of strange that the crab seems more like an afterthought in the recipe. It doesn't say how to prepare it, or even if it's cooked.

I'm assuming the recipe doesn't intend one to put in a whole, live deep sea crab. Smile

Whoa, I never thought of that! It doesn't specifically say a package or cooked crab or anything, but maybe they assume that you'd have already cooked it or bought it that way? Weird. I'd bet it's an oversight before anything else, but.. who knows?

This large deep-sea crab belongs in a group of crabs known as anomurans, which includes the hermit crabs. Some scientists suggest hermit crabs evolved from crabs such as these. It has long protective spikes and large crushing claws, presumably for crushing other crabs and shellfish. It has a soft tail held up under its body, showing its relations to the soft-bodied hermit crabs. Only eight legs are well developed, a small fifth pair is held up with the tail under the body. This specimen is a male, recognised by the genital opening at the base of the last arm pair. Although it looks very bright and colourful to us, the red colour probably helps hide it in the deep sea. In low light levels, red looks black, so it would blend in well in the darkness. Its eyes are very small; in some deep-sea crabs they have lost their eyesight completely.

i have successfully convinced myself to never go deep sea diving so lets hope this is worth it. After figuring that the crab is the same on the slusho website i decided to look at the other ones too.

Theres the donkey, the duck, and the jelly fish. I looked up purple jelly fish and it actually exists. The interesting thing about it is that it doesnt have long tenticals like other jelly fish. It actually looks JUST like the one on the slusho website except its not entirely purple, but it IS called the purple jelly fish. "Purple jellyfish (Pelagia panopyra)"

It's just that every other ingredient specifically states how to prepare it... except for the crab. Based on what little we know, I would think that this is the important part.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the monster's rumored parasites?

So...we go back to slusho.jp's History page and look at the cute lil crab at the bottom of the page. The moody one, capable of four different emotions.

And we note that there ISN'T a timestamp on this photo. Meaning it's probably out of sequence ...i.e., occurs sometime before 1/18/08. Maybe a clip from a Japanese cooking show that Rob or somebody likes.

Wild Theory #94201: is the monster, then, a deep sea crab that's been mutated by Slusho or something else?

What if it's a clip from a cooking show after the monster struck and was defeated? It could be tongue-in-cheek telling you to cook the giant monster for dinner. ??

i dont think its a crab monster, mainly because of the marks on the statue of liberty and then the marks on the buildings. Also as i stated before i looked up the other animals and the purple jelly fish often times have little fishies that live on them or around them. The fish are called medusa fish which resemble the little fish that are swimming around on the slusho page. Quite possibly it could be an awkward combination of the three, or the sea ingredient came from the area these creatures dwell in, or the creature survives in the same depths.

I might be able to agree with a mutation theory. The legs of a crab could explain the damage on the lower parts of the buildings in the poster.
