yes and no
a steak, no matter how good the meat and cuison, is only ever going to taste like beef
a good sauce can bring balance, depth, contrast, or all of those

if you want you can remove them before but there is no difference in flavour
most crabs you buy from reputable sources will have been in tanks long enough to purge

eggs
eggs and truffles are a beautiful combo - scramble some and stir in some finely minced truffle toward the end as well as plenty of butter
fuck it's good

I got myself a couple of lobes of foie gras from Smithfield a few months ago, and enjoyed it tremendously although can't see myself buying it again unless I want to impress a girl or if I'm hosting a party
I cooked it through sous vide, then topped with diced prunes soaked in Nikka, and set that shit on fire... topped with a little 15yo balsamic and set as an amuse. I wish I had a pic

1 stuffed
trim all the cartilage and sinew
make a stuffing with breadcrumbs, sage, thyme, garlic, and fried shallots
cover with stock, pop in a cast iron pot in the oven about 160 for about 1h30 before removing liquid and roasting the heart at 210 for 10-15 mins
pass, skim and reduce the cooking liquid, and add a little butter (or just clarify and add a little xanthan)
serve on a bed of cabbage dressed with orange zest and cashews

Learn about it
Spend a day doing food shit; get a good relationship with a butcher, fishmonger, and greengrocer who will share their knowledge on what ingredients are and what to do with them
Get yourself a copy of a well regarded cookbook and make some stuff, and try to ask yourself how it can be improved upon each time
