1. it's ok in California rolls

w/ japanese mayo, etc.

white castle burgers have too much onion powder in them

[Heidi]

2. If this is one of your smartass threads, I'm gonna look like an absolute idiot.

I like imitation crab, especially on salads. Yes, I prefer genuine crab, but the imitation stuff is dang good. Also, I'm very, very hungry right now. :weep:

[Shell Beau]

5. I like it too!! It is very good on salads. I buy it strictly for salad use!

[Heidi]

6. Thank you, Shell Beau. When the food snobs get here,

we can form our very own little contingent against the accusations that we're "white trash." :hug: :hug:

[Shell Beau]

9. That is right. And with you and me in the group, we can kick some food snob ass!

:7

[Heidi]

11. Are you with me, then, in organizing the DU Ladies' Club's first-ever

Mimosa/Imitation Crab Meat Brunch? :7

(White gloves optional.)

[Shell Beau]

15. Got to find an outfit for the brunch! What to wear?

I am so sporting the white gloves. That is for sure! ;)

[Heidi]

16. TIARA!!!!

Gotta have it, girl!

And no overtly-sexy open-toed shoes!!!!! They are the work of the DEBIL! :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

19. oh yes. Me too, I was thinking about something along this line

except in a floral and of course White kid gloves :D

[Heidi]

30. PERFECT!!!

:thumbsup:

[TommyO]

49. Fake crab is an abomination!

And darned good on salads, the fake lobster is pretty darned tasty too.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

7. I don't care if it is OR, if it ain't one of his smart ass threads ---

I Like Imitation Crab Meat, too!! :bounce:

and Of Course we prefer the real thing. I think imitation crab meat needs to be re-named. It gets a bad rep because of its name. Thats what I think. :D

:hi:

[Heidi]

8. You can join Shell Beau and me

when I host the first-ever DU Ladies' Mimosa/Imitation Crab Meat Brunch!

White gloves optional! :rofl: :spray:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

13. Sure Thing, Darling

Love to attend your soiree :D

[Heidi]

14. Will we need by-laws and stuff

for the DU Ladies' Auxiliary?

I'm thinkin', "Let's just wing it!" :D

[Tuesday Afternoon]

17. oh yes, That sounds lovely

[Heidi]

18. You have all of the qualifications for DULA Recording Secretary!

:loveya:

:hug:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

21. cool..

I can take notes and everything :bounce: I look so sexy librarian with a pencil behind my ear

[Heidi]

24. Fortunately, you won't have to take notes by hand! DULA provides you with a PDA!

[Tuesday Afternoon]

27. I will label everything in Pink or maybe red --

My Granma had one of those. She labeled Everything

[Heidi]

28. You apparently come from a long line of genteel women.

This does not surprise me. :hug:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

31. ~

[Heidi]

33. ~

And now I wonder how many people here think you and I are batshit insane???? (Not that I care. :evilgrin: )

:*

[Tuesday Afternoon]

37. Let them think --

its good for them (thinking, that is ;))

[Heidi]

39. That's the DULA patron saint/protecting goddess!!!!!!! I'd recognize her ANYWHERE!

:thumbsup:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

41. Heidi

I am really laughing til the tears are rolling down my cheeks over here. Thanks ever so much for the fun. I am off for work now. You guys have a great day. :hug:

[Heidi]

42. Leaving without a kiss???????

:*

Have a great Friday, dear. :hug:

:loveya:

[Kali]

20. they did rename it, didn't they?

KRAB, with a K.:rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

34. dear me...

my off the wall thought....

Wouldn't KaliKrab make an excellent DU name? :D :rofl:

[merh]

23. it has a real name

summi from the pollack
http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf58789209.tip.html

Think in terms of the hotdog - pieces and parts to make a new "food" except that imitation crab meat is made (processed) mostly from the pollack fish.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

25. yes, that is right ...Pollack

it is delicious!! Not as sweet and the texture is different. Still, a wonderful treat.

[Lethe]

38. who knew that fish could paint

they were saying just the other day that it was rubbish.

[merh]

47. I agree - pollack is tasty

and the faux crab meat can be a nice treat.

[namahage]

45. It's actually "surimi," not "summi"

"Surimi" translates to something like "ground flesh."

[merh]

46. thanks for the info

looks like the link I provided spelled it incorrectly -

welcome to DU :hi:

[TommyO]

50. I was surprised to see that there is actually pork and other meat surimi

It's not surprising since the process is pretty much like making a hot dog.

[auntAgonist]

22. I like it too! It makes a great snack

it's good on salad and I love to make crab salad for sandwiches with it :)

go figger.

aA
:hi:

[Heidi]

26. You're a perfect candidate for the DU Ladies' Auxiliary.

Membership is by invitation only, but I find your love of imitation crab extremely inviting, so we'll now dispense with the formalities and regular marksmanship-related initiation ritual and declare you IN! :*

:loveya:

:yourock:

[auntAgonist]

29. woo hoo

I'm in :)

:rofl:

:loveya:

[LeftyFingerPop]

32. No seriously....I love it....just had some!

(smart ass threads?).... O8)

:hug:

[Heidi]

35. The DU Ladies' Auxiliary Imitation Crab Authentification Committee will need

to smell your breath. :rofl: :spray:

[LeftyFingerPop]

40. Oh brother!

Well, it smells like toothpaste, alcohol free mouthwash, imitation crab meat, Italian bread, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions, and diet coke! :rofl:

[Heidi]

43. I got a whiff of the crab meat. You are authenticated and you may pass,

after first leaving a retinal scan with our Esteemed Sargent At Arms, Shell Beau.

Extending the white-gloved hand of friendship,

Heidi (*authentic imitation crab burp*)

[flvegan]

3. When did White Castle burgers ever bill as the greatest to set that bar?

[Strong Atheist]

4. But White castle burger S***! Really, the only time I ate one, I honestly

thought my appendix had burst...

[TZ]

10. Never tried it.

I think my Maryland card would be taken away if I ate "imitation" crab meat in the Blue Crab state...:scared:

[Taverner]

12. Even better if you're allergic to crab, yet love it

[RebelOne]

36. I don't like imitation anything. I want the real stuff. n/t

[pokerfan]

44. It's true

My grocer just started carrying this:



Good stuff.

[old mark]

48. Some local markets call it "Krab".......

I won't eat that shit.

mark

[baldguy]

51. Your minimum requirements for "greatest food" are rather low.

[Midlodemocrat]

52. Not a fan. Love the real stuff though.

How you feeling today?
