idk this seems a bit more important than "treats shortage."

Ignoring environmental shit this obviously indicates, crawfish is a very important social food in the southern US. The only food that still has an entir event named after it, the Crawfish Boil. This isn't just losing treats, they're losing the thing that served as the yearly family reunion. I actually see this having social effects beyond treatbrained people being upset

Our town used to have a sweet clam bake every year until it became almost exclusively a full day drunken brawl and hardly anybody even made it to dinner.
