I tried an even Poorer Man’s version of the lobster roll with some imitation crab/lobster meat. Mixed it up with some mayo, salt and pepper. Put it on a pan-toasted hot dog bun with a little olive oil. Added pickles. It was really good for what it was. Subtle imitation shellfish flavor. Meat is more firm, like baloney chunks. Better than the crab from a can version I made last week. The imitation crab/lobster meat is cheap. I could make about 5-6 sandwiches from the $2 pack I got at the grocery. Fast and easy prep. Nothing to cook. Made from a Brooklyn apartment.

That would make excellent dorm food.

You got the cheap imitation crap meat. Asian markets have different grades of fake crab meat. Get the ones that you can pollio string cheese the meat. They taste better but still a lot cheaper than the real thing.

ooh, I didn’t realize those were better. I thought it was just a different shape. But now that I think about it, I have had imitation crab meat where it pulls apart like fibers. Thanks for the tip!
