上世纪20年代，小龙虾经一位日本商人首次引入中国东部省份江苏省。据《环球时报》介绍，大约在30年前，小龙虾出现在江汉平原。潜江市就坐落于此。

对于生态系统，特别是当地农民来说，小龙虾这种外来物种起初并不受欢迎。

潜江市鲍湾村村民刘柱全（音译）说：“它们把水稻田里的稻秧掐断，在田垄里挖通道让水分都流失了。”

相同的小龙虾，不同的吃法

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。

据历史网站.me称，由于阿卡迪亚人对龙虾十分熟悉，且此前有打渔经验，融入当地后，小龙虾就成了他们的食物。阿卡迪亚人成为卡津人后，食用小龙虾的传统被保存下来，才有了如今流行的小龙虾吃法。
From late to early June, one of New ' most foods, , is in , and . With this comes the of boils. This is when and join - , and .
小龙虾是新奥尔良最受欢迎的当地美食，每年2月下旬至6月初正是小龙虾上市的时节，产量丰富。这也是一年一度举办“小龙虾节”的时候。亲朋好友在户外相聚，围坐在铺着报纸的桌前，剥小龙虾吃。
美国人煮小龙虾时，会选用一口直筒的大汤锅，里面放上水和一大包卡疆粉，主要包括塔巴斯科辣椒、柠檬、胡椒、芹菜粉、月桂叶、姜粉、芫荽籽、芥末籽、洋葱以及盐。然后倒入满满一锅小龙虾，一边熬煮一边缓缓搅动，让调料和小龙虾充分的混合，期间放入一些蒜瓣提香，除了这些还可以加其它食物一起熬煮，比如玉米、红土豆、蘑菇等。
小龙虾煮熟后，很有仪式感的在长条桌上铺满报纸，把控干水的小龙虾们“Duang”的一下倾倒出来，顿时辛辣香气扑面而来。人们围坐在桌旁大快朵颐，吃小龙虾时还可以配上当地的玉米发糕。口味的小龙虾和我们熟悉的“麻小”有些许相似，辣味也十分劲爆。
Even the boil wasn't as as it is today, in dates all the way back to pre- times, to .me .
据.me网站称，虽然水煮小龙虾从前并不像现在这么受欢迎，但在路易斯安那州，吃小龙虾的传统可以追溯到前殖民时代。
While in China and New each local , both are in that are to the world.
虽说中国和新奥尔良的小龙虾美食各具独特的地方风味，但都加入了唤醒全世界味蕾的香辣调料。
