Roasted crabs as party food?Posted Nov 29th 2006 11:02AM by Joe DiStefanoFiled under: Snacks, Far East, Food Oddities, Raves & Reviews, ShellfishI don't know about you, but sugary roasted miniature crabs don't exactly spell party to me. I found this unique snack at a Japanese grocery store. Let's make one thing clear: These are actual crabs, complete with shells. They're not tiny crab-shaped candies or marzipan.The wording on the package brought to mind Fast Times at Ridgemont High. I can almost see Spicoli popping one of these crunchy crustaceans in his mouth and taking a swig from a bottle of Asahi, and exclaiming, "Let's party." Believe it or not, I find the little guys to be quite tasty, if incredibly crunchy. They beat out shrimp granola for the strangest seafood item I've ever eaten. I can't wait to see how healthy my hair gets from all the chitin in the shells.
