Crab sticks, also known as imitation crab, are a seafood product commonly used in Japanese cuisine and other global dishes like sushi, salads, and soups. Despite their name, crab sticks are typically made from processed white fish, such as pollock, combined with starch, egg whites, sugar, salt, and flavorings to mimic the taste and texture of crab meat. While they are affordable and versatile, crab sticks are a highly processed food and may contain additives, artificial colors, and high sodium levels. They are low in fat and calories, making them a diet-friendly option, but they lack the nutritional benefits of real crab, such as omega-3 fatty acids. Crab sticks are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, complementing fresh and whole ingredients for better nutritional value.
