And it’s for the most adorable reason.
This week the eating struggles continue, but with another player from another tribe.
“You need food out here,” Anika Dhar explains in a confessional interview.

“We’re all starving.
Something a little protein, like let’s change it up.'”

And how exactly did they change it up?

“We cooked the hermit crabs by boiling them in water,” Anika explains.
“It was as simple as that.”
“They’re probably almost done,” chef Sam Phalen observes while watching the dish being cooked.

“That level of heat, I feel like these things are done.
Oh yeah, those are boiling.
Those are going to be good.
They’re pink.”
It’s not bad."
Sounds like a Michelin-starred establishment to us!
“Some of them have shells,” assistant chef Rachael LaMont says of the crabs.
“Yeah, a lot of them didn’t fall out of their shells this time.”
But there is one Gata tribe member who decides not to partake in the feast at all.
“And I’m trying to play it cool.”
And why exactly is Sierra not eating alongside the others?
“I had hermit crabs as little animals growing up,” she recalls.
“And to me, I can’t do that.
That’s not my thing.
So I just let them have the hermit crabs.
We made some popcorn out of coconut.
I’m not eating hermit crabs, so clearly I’m not that starved.
But I’ll eat anything else.”
Here’s hoping Sierra did not also have any pet Applebee’s growing up in Delaware.
In the meantime, enjoy the exclusive deleted scene for yourself above.
