The electrical industrial machinery that are used to manufacture this specific product includes names like “scum sucker” and “meat pump”. These are pumps that were designed to move fluids, and the “meat” moves like a fluid under pressure. The chutes that move the solids - before they become… a sort of slurry - collect lighter fats, skin, and scales and they form a sticky gelatinous stalactite. They grow up to a meter or two before they break and fall.

It is a sight to see. My favorite cannery was on an active volcano. You had to take a hovercraft to get there; or a helicopter in high winds; and if the weather was too bad you had to hitch a ride with the haulers. Those things walz through extreme swells like it tickles. Not far from dutch harbor. I think it was akutan. Pretty wild though. Still can’t eat the stuff, I took one of those fish tentacles down the back of my shirt, and I threw those clothes away. They also made fich sticks. Same recipe I suppose.

Mess with the crab, you get the stab. I have a picture I made of that on another phone. Sadly not this one.
