Question

Would you feel safe eating canned crab meat?

Answer 1

Probably not

Answer 2

no.

i wouldn't trust it b/c it's not fresh

& probably has preservatives to keep it fresh.

it might even be impostor crab meat.

doesn't sound too healthy to me...

Answer 3

Ew...no...but I'm a Marylander and we're all about blue crabs baby lol...the only way to eat a crab is fresh from the Chesapeake with some old bay!!!

Answer 4

no i ike it when the whole family gos to the beach and my dad would bring the net and we would wait for hours only to get the crabs. but we mostly always just got baby crabs so me and my sis and the guest would play with em then throw them back at the ocean. and my mom would be waiting in the car cuz she's always cold!!!! and then when we would catch one my dad would be very happy. then we go home and stove cook it and eat it around the table, and dipping it in melted butter!!!! i missed those times.

Answer 5

If its good and not expired than maybe.

Answer 6

if the can isn't dented, and if it's still good.

=]

Answer 7

When my grandma makes crab cakes or crab dip,we usually get the Philips canned crab meat as long as it's not expired and looks good. No one in my family has every gotten sick from it. So, I guess if the crab wasn't expired, than yes.

Hope I could help!

Answer 8

I don't eat crab at all

Answer 9

without the can?

Answer 10

The only thing wrong with canned crab meat is the can ... I don't eat it because the three times I had it I could taste the metal of the can in the crab.  I was raised in the Pacific Northwest, though, and grew up eating crab that was caught and boiled earlier the same day.  If you don't know what good fresh crab tastes like, canned crab is a good safe way to start your adventure into shell-fish.
