Livvy Dunne is the master of many arts and can now add deveining a crawfish to her impressive resume. The gymnast recently shared the easiest way to eat the crustaceans on TikTok, but not without a catch. Instead of pulling out the crawfish’s digestive tract vein, also called the “poop vein,” Dunne showcased her slurping skills by eating it, creating quite a fluster from her fans in the comments section. This clip, like all her videos, went viral.
Livvy Dunne’s crawfish deveining video goes viral on TikTok
Livvy Dunne recently went all Cajun on crawfish while sharing a useful or rather unexpected hack with her followers via a TikTok video. The gymnast, who has been living in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for the past few years, embraced the local seafood item through a tutorial on how to devein them. The social media star ditched the conventional process in favor of just one bite, igniting quite a response from her fans.
Talking her audience through her crawfish-eating lessons on TikTok, Livvy Dunne held one crustacean in her hand and said, “How to take the poop vein out of a crawfish.” After separating the head from the tail, the gymnast gave a closer look at the crawfish’s digestive tract vein before making an unprecedented move. Instead of pulling the vein out, the TikTok sensation chose to suck and eat it.
A conventional deveining process would require a crawfish aficionado to crack the tail’s shell and pull out the middle fin to separate the vein from the tail. The poop vein, as the name suggests, contains all of the crawfish’s waste and has an unpleasant flavor. In her TikTok video, Livvy Dunne happily slurped it before sucking the juices out of the crawfish’s head for some extra flavor.
Livvy Dunne is no stranger to viral moments, and her crawfish-eating skills made it to the list. The gymnast managed to surprise many fans with her unexpected move of eating the poop vein. One joked, “Yeah, I’m gonna have to check with my licensed nutritionist first.” Another commended the star’s “solid slurping skills.”
