Review: Not worth it - The flavor is more bearable if you take small bites instead of eating a crab whole, and in doing so I can somewhat how this kind of snack could be an enjoyable. But these just have too much off-putting (and somewhat concerning) flavors that left me feeling slightly nauseous. Like others have said, these have a strong and somewhat rotten taste. They have a strong fish food like smell, which I didn't find too bad. But the taste was concentrated fish food with some off-putting/rot flavors and a hint of sweetness. The aftertaste lingers and tastes like wet dog. At the very tail end you get a secondary aftertaste of ocean similar to seaweed. Not only is it not worth the money, it's not worth it in general.
Review: Not edible - I typically like seafood and fish of all types. So I enjoy trying new seafood related treats. These are not something I enjoyed at all. They smell like rotting fish and im pretty sure the drying process is just throw them out in the sun until they rot and dry. The coating tastes ok but as soon as you crunch into them it's rotten tasting. Definitely not worth the $15 I paid to try it. I tried 2 crabs and a claw even with soy sauce it still not something that's edible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprising & different snack
*by V***N on February 13, 2026*

Unusual and delightful snack! I'm always looking for unusual snacks and this fits the bill. It is something different for me, it is super crunchy, the taste might be too spicy for most folks, also the texture might be off-putting, but I enjoyed it and look forward to re-ordering!
