Imitation Seafood Crab Salad Recipe

Why would anyone choose imitation crab over the real crab? For one thing, it is much less expensive and more readily available. Imitation crab (also known as surimi) is made from fish so it is a good choice for those who cannot eat shellfish due to allergies or religious restrictions. Serve imitation crab salad as a salad greens topper, sandwich spread, chunky dip, or appetizer cracker topper.
