My meal's meal!

I bought some fresh mussels from a stand that gets fresh seafood from Wilmington, NC, daily. I found this tiny crab in one of the mussels as I was eating dinner. It is about the size of my thumbnail. At first I thought it was a rock, then I realized it had legs.

Circle of life! Was it dead? I’m glad you didn’t chomp down on it

Oh my goodness! I love mussels but unless it was cooked, that would have been the end of that meal for me until I could get rid of it.
