Bumble Bee Crab Meat, Fancy White, 6 Ounce

Don’t even bother. We were excited to get this for our open faced crab sandwiches! What arrived was mush, non-edible mush. Opened one can, maybe a fluke? Second can the same. My husband who eats about anything said it was garbage worthy. Terrible waste of money. 😡😡

This can of crab meat is surprisingly not bad. Plenty of meat in a small can. But there are two things that I think can be pro or con, depends on your usage. 1. Not much taste. I guess it's expected since it's not refined. Can be a good thing to mix with something else. 2. Very finely minced. So don't expect any meat chunk at all. It's good if use it to make crab cake. But then again, using canned crab meat to make crab cakes just wouldn't taste as good as fresh crab meat.

The can is large but don’t get your hopes up…it is a lot of water. By the time you drain it, only about 1/3 left is “crab”. No pieces, just slurry. Must be the leftovers washed off the table from processing. Honestly, this should be tested to see how much crab is in this because it doesn’t taste like crab unless you use your imagination. I won’t order again. My picture shows the amount of crab after pressing out the water. Made in China.

I didn't like the large amount of meat in our soup from the l lb. can of meat my husband was finding in the refrigerator section in brick and mortar store. This small can of meat made a really good crab soup for this land person anyway. My husband is a east coast person and he like it too. Might be because we have a good recipe made with a can of celery soup, small carton of cream, Tablespoon of Old bay, small amount of Worcestershire powder & onion powder, butter product, this small can of crab meat was perfect. I haven't finish my mug of soup yet, but no shell or grit yet knock on wood. The grit and shell was on the bottom of my mug, but not a lot just wouldn't eat that part next time, quite a bit of crab meat bottom of my mug too. Weird texture but still good flavor. No fishy smell. Our very first time to try cream of crab of soup we tried a can of lump crab and it had a lot of fishy smell. 2nd try to make cream of crab soup we tried claw meat it had no fishy smell. This is our 3rd can and third time to try cream of crab soup. Again no fishy smell. Overall this is my preference because I like a lot of cream of soup with just a little bit of crab meat, lol.

The product is ok, inside the can I found an unexpected piece of paper - like a paper cup used to hold the product. Once I got that out and drained the can I found the meat is pulverized but It did make an decent crab salad sandwich. Also, not so happy with the fact that they were thrown in a big box with multiple other items so two cans were dented. It will work for emergency storage as it has a nice long date.
