Although crab meat is a healthier option, the calories and calories rise when you add the butter. While there are thousands of species of crabs, only some of them are edible. Some of the more popular and tasty ones in the United States are the blue crab, stone crab, Dungeness, king, and rock or snow crabs. They are available in both hard and soft shells and can be found along both coasts and Hawaii.

These crustaceans' meat can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Boiled crab, whether the legs or the entire creature, results in a feast that necessitates some manual labor from the diner. However, every delectable morsel is well worth the effort. Make dips, cakes, or soups by mixing the meat with other ingredients.
