Why would anyone take this chance?
Sanford and Main is where you can find live blue crabs. Hawkers stack their wooden bushels three high, selling the crustaceans for a buck apiece.
Whether the crabs are legal or safe to eat is anybody’s guess. No agency could tell The Post with certainty and none took responsibility for oversight.
New York state allows crabbing in the waters around Queens, but has restrictions on the size and number of catches. It issues permits for large hauls.
But the regulating agency, the state Department of Environmental Conservation, doesn’t require a retail permit to sell the crabs. The city Health Department licenses mobile food vendors, who can’t sell raw seafood, but doesn’t monitor the street peddlers.
The wife of a licensed vendor bought a dozen several weeks ago, over the objections of her husband, who hasn’t worked during the pandemic because of chronic lung disease.
“She figured what could go wrong … well plenty,” said the husband who spoke to The Post on the condition of anonymity.
That night, she nibbled on crab legs. Not long after, she started to feel sick and her husband decided to dissect the leftovers for clues. He found white worms in the bellies. The Health Department is investigating, spokesman Patrick Gallahue told The Post.
