Crab
These 10-legged sea spiders have become one of the most popular crustaceans in US dining (only second to shrimp). There are over 4000 types of crab, and there are more in North America than anywhere else in the world.
Crab is so widely used in cooking that imitation crab was developed (which is usually made from surimi) as a lower cost alternative and stays fresh longer. You can substitute imitation crab in many recipes.
