Surimi sticks, often called imitation crab, are a seafood product made primarily from white fish such as pollock, combined with starch, egg whites, salt, sugar, and flavorings. Originating from Japanese cuisine, surimi is crafted by finely mincing fish into a smooth paste, then shaping and coloring it to resemble crab meat. This versatile ingredient is commonly used in sushi, salads, and seafood dishes. Surimi sticks are low in fat and provide a modest source of protein, making them a light option for meals or snacks. However, they often contain added sodium, artificial flavoring, and preservatives, which may not be ideal for those monitoring their intake of processed foods. Nutritionally, surimi lacks some of the vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids found in real crab, but it serves as an affordable and convenient alternative for enjoying seafood flavors.
