Excellent crabmeat. We use it for Crab Louie salads straight out of the package. Everyone raves about the taste and quality, “best ever.” Lots of chunks of crabmeat, too, and have never found any bits of shell in the many bags we’ve ordered. It comes frozen flat, unlike other places where I have ordered the same amount and it comes smashed into a small plastic container. Customer service is exceptional, too.

The best crab ever. It’s hard not to eat it straight out of the package but it really makes the best crab cakes.

This is outstanding crab meat. The best I have enjoyed. A lot of “jumbo chunks”. It is extremely fresh tasting and deserves to be eaten uncooked by itself or with very little additional ingredients so as to not mask the beautiful flavor and texture. You will become very ashamed of yourself if you return to canned crab meat after enjoying this.
