Re: Krab Anyone?
no I've yet to see an artificial crab meat that is low carb or does not contain sugar.
It's unlikely you will find one that does not contain sugar, as it's added to the fish (i believe it's pollock they use) in order to give it the sweet flavour crab has.Jen, 39, F

Re: Krab Anyone?
I was very sad to see all the high carb ingredients in the fake crab and lobster. I used to eat it a lot. I even liked it better in crab salad than the real thing. Too bad--it is off my menu forever.People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

Re: Krab Anyone?
Oh well darnit....thanks anyway you guys. It didn't come packaged, I bought it in bulk from the meat counter. I'm assuming it probably is full of sugar if most of the packaged ones are. Too bad since I love it and real crab is beyond my budget.Start Date - 2/17/09

You could always ask the staff to show you the package they get it wrapped in just to make sure.Originally posted by kenzie9 View PostWondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

Re: Krab Anyone?
I went to get some at the supermarket and it listed 18 carbs per serving!!!
It has both potato starch and sugar!!! Needless to say I splurged and bought a can of real crab at 0 carbs!!!
