MW Polar Fancy Lump Crab Meat 5oz (Pack of 1)

Inflation has affected everything, even canned crab! But I like this so I buy it from time to time - it makes very good crab cakes with an old recipe I’ve used for years.

I love seafood and canned meat so decided to try this. I added mayo too and and made it like tuna salad. I ate it with crackers. It tastes pretty good. I never had canned crab before so I was glad it turned out surprising good. I recommend it for a handy snack or to add it to other dishes.

I was happy to find that it didn't have that "canned" taste. Very similar to the fresh pasteurized crab meat that costs 5x as much. I used it to make Lady Mary's Crab Appetizers, they were delish and I have already ordered 2 more cans to have on hand.

Without a ready access to chunk lobster meat at this time (without resorting to mutilating a fanatically-priced whole tail) this product has worked very well for my mock Lobster Bisque soup.

This is not lump crab meat. It is shreded. It was white and good but not lump crab meat. I will not buy it again for I love the lumps for crab cakes.

I bought Polar and Bumblebee, two cans each, so I could compare the two. The taste was similar. I rinsed both in a colander to get rid of the brine. Neither brand needed a lot of parsing to remove shell chips.I also bought a container of More Please lump crab meat from Sprouts. I will get back to that, shortly.The Bumblebee was superior in that it had more lump by far. Taste was similar.The More please brand was not packed in water, and was all limp meat. In fatness, it cost twice as much as the other two, but it was not full of water that was drained off.I give 2 stars out of 5 to Polar, and 3 to Bumblebee based upon % of actual lump meat, about 30% and 50 respectively. The More Please brand, in comparison, was at least 90% lump, and not packed in water.

Really good salmon. Fresh. Juicy. It's my lunch because my heart doc said to have fish everyday at lunch.

about half the can was small chunks and half was shredded but still very tasty. I drained and washed it before marinating it and using it. satisfied for use in crab cakes or stuffed shrimp.
