Take one can tuna…
Don’t laugh. My sister actually had this the other day! She was visiting family in the midwest and she and family friend Bill shared a crabcake appetizer. The crabcakes were the size of hamburgers!
They each tasted their crabcake and it was tuna! When asked, the restaurant said first that it was tuna, then said it was a mix of tuna and crab.
I expect a crabmeat cake to be expensive (recently had two sea scallop-sized ones at a reasonably priced local eatery on the LUNCH menu for $32, no sides).
I expect to taste delicate crab, with very little mayonnaise or breadcrumbs or other fillers. But for heaven’s sake, if you’re advertising crab cakes, you’d better use crab (and not Krab, either). My rant for the day. Well, at least my first rant! Dee
