I unironically like this stuff because I'm allergic to actual shellfish

Drinking Hamm's is unironically authentico, only non-hipsters who are looking for a true value in canned beer and not "I'm not a upper middle class white suburban boy, but really identify as a country bumpkin man of the land!" kind of beer. The kind you like. You know that kind. We like that kind. Flannel shirt and all.

how are you meant to cook this?

So what is it actually made of? Does it have any % of real crab meat at all?

>>9550490

It's mostly flour, then fish, some crab or lobster, flavorings and preservatives. Obviously there is water in there.

Not. My mon loves that stuff and she just eats it plain as a snack.
Sometimes when we make sushi, she adds some into a few rolls.

I unironically love it. I like to mix it with rice along with a cubed avocado, a splash of rice vinegar, and some sesame oil. Tastes like an exploded california roll.

i eat it with lemon on some tostadas with pico de gallo

>>9550456
it contains shellfish

>>9551052
Depends on the brand

>>9549590
