yes but only at a restaurant, not having to split through 30 snow crab legs to get a decent mouthful is worth the money

On a per pound basis, it's got to be the priciest seafood I get. I'm not a big seafood guy, so shit like diver scallops (~20s/lb) and Chilean sea bass (~23/lb) are the only other things that exceed $20/lb.

I usually get it from Costco. Their Alaskan isn't as big as it used to be and is usually $40 to $45/lb. They also sell the Chilean ones for less than $20/lb.

Alaska is bigger and better. But chilean is fine and a better overall value. Although the only time I got an overcooked/not good package, it was the Chilean/south sea ones.

if it's real, and if it's reasonably fresh. a lot of 'crab' is fake or semi-fake (eg, other species of crabs, crabs from asian aquaculture ponds, crab mixed with filler, fish disguised as crab, fish disguised as crab mixed with filler, etc.).

It’s good because it’s the most meat for the least effort, but it isn’t the best flavor. It’s mostly for Asians and lazys.

Snow crabs taste better, have softer shells that don't scrape your hands and easy pry to open. They also have much less of the nasty shit that everyone avoids in crabs.
