相同的小龙虾，不同的吃法

The Acadians arrived in Louisiana after the Great Expulsion in 1755. Hailing from the Canadian Maritime provinces, seafood had already been a staple of their diet. Upon arriving in Louisiana, the Acadians settled along the bayous of New Orleans and neighboring communities, where crayfish were abundant in the slow-moving water.

1755年“阿卡迪亚大驱逐”后，阿卡迪亚人来到路易斯安那州。他们来自加拿大沿海省份，海鲜是他们餐桌上的常客。阿卡迪亚人到达路易斯安那后，在新奥尔良市的小海港及附近社区定居，这里缓缓流淌的水面下盛产小龙虾。

According to the NewOrleans.me historical website, since the Acadians were familiar with lobster and had previous fishing experience, their contact with local Native Americans, led to the introduction of crayfish into the Acadian diet. And when the Acadians became the Cajuns, the tradition of eating crayfish continued, leading to the popular methods of consuming the crustaceans today.
