    - I didn’t think that this would need to be said, as I hoped most folks would have enough common sense to realise for themselves. My wife and I shared the cooking, I did not force my wife to cook because I am some chauvinistic beast. We shared it because we share things. Including the food. My son did not eat any because he did not want any. As you will hear in the video, our battery was dying so we quickly closed and signed off, my wife holding the camera. Then we sat and ate. I did not eat it all myself and deny my wife food. The fact people would even think that blows my mind. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤯

    I gotta say, I'm born and raised in a land-locked state and I'm not into eating seafood of any kind but there's something so peaceful about watching these foraging videos.

    It's almost comforting to see humans just doing human things. Foraging and collecting, preparing food and sharing with your family, teaching valuable skills to the younger generations...this is what being a human's about.
    Edit: I wanna correct my words. I think the idea conveyed is that humans are a lot of things, which is what makes us the top of our food chain, but I feel like we've been missing these simple things that used to carry us and our generations which makes us desire them more. Living inside and only concerning yourself with material things makes you miss the freedom of the wild, but living a life where survival is the only goal makes humans yearn for more. A balance between our roots and the future would bring us peace, I think.

    As others have said, I don't know how this turned up. Sometimes UA-cam just throws something different at you. I found it quite delightful. Watching a family outing combined with learning things. I used to live on the West coast of Canada and this really made me miss it, even though the beach was quite rocky where I lived.
    Those crazy people accusing you of "making your wife cook" and not sharing the food need to re-evaluate their life LOL I figured that your wife got some, but thought maybe the lad wasn't fond of seafood. Many of us don't acquire a taste for it till we get older. PS I don't like oysters, either. Unless they are smoked. Always a couple of tins in my pantry.

I grew up and live on Long Island, New York which is surrounded by water.
