Funny that the movie is in the year 2022..
I've seen it..might have to again sometime.

Yep. 99% of crab sticks purchased at a store or included in sushi (like "California rolls") is not crab. I think it's mostly white-fish and wheat flour, IIRC.

AKA "Crabolene"

stevej37 01-29-2021 12:17 PM

^^^ at least the imitation crab has some fish in it.
They're saying the tuna sandwich has no tuna or fish at all

Alleged

I used to eat that stuff 25 years ago, and it was funky back then.

varmint 01-29-2021 12:26 PM

tunaducken?

stevej37 01-29-2021 12:28 PM

I had it a couple weeks ago only because I was with friends who love that place.

Personally, I hate it....especially standing in line to have to pick all your ingredients.
Also..doesn't matter what type of meat you order...it all tastes the same.

LWJ 01-29-2021 12:29 PM

Curious. Never had one. Seems like I never will.

There's an idea. I love duck...combined with real tuna...might be good.

Zeke 01-29-2021 12:42 PM

That's one reason I don't eat beef, fowl or seafood. That's been 35 years now. But before that I wouldn't eat anything that came in a sealed bag that was supposed to be from one of the sources listed above. I think I stopped eating bologna at about age 15. Remember Oscar Meyer's Sandwich spread?

Rat food.

stevej37 01-30-2021 12:10 PM

lawsuit for $5 million.
I would have asked for a years free of sandwiches...lol

This thread reminded me of the story that 'This American Life' did on synthetic calamari.

Yup.

Gotta use every part of the buffalo, so to speak.

dafischer 01-30-2021 01:29 PM

I'll eat tuna salad at home, rarely out, and never at a fast food joint. Mystery meat personified.

cabmandone 01-30-2021 02:00 PM

Just remember.... If it smells like fish...

thor66 01-30-2021 02:26 PM

Subway says it is tuna.

Get out your DNA Sequencer if you want to check

stevej37 01-30-2021 03:03 PM

Went to Panama a couple years ago to see the canal.
Stopped at a few coastal fish markets and had lunch there.
The ceviche was excellent. After lunch we walked through the fish cleaning section where the ceviche comes from.

That's the last time I'll ever eat ceviche.

cassisrot 01-30-2021 03:24 PM

My first thought was AOC.

JackDidley 01-30-2021 03:52 PM

Cat food ??

widebody911 01-30-2021 04:06 PM

Bad hygiene?

unclebilly 01-30-2021 04:34 PM

Imitation crab is typically hake or burbot or some other undesirable bottom fish. When I was commercial fishing off Vancouver Island in the mid 90’s, there were several local boats dragging for this. They would either deliver to one of the Russian factory processor boats at the 100 mile line or would deliver to Ucuelet Seafood Processors. The guys working for the factory boats would transfer the cod end of their nets to the factory boat and hook up a separate cod end and go back to fishing. Lots of radio traffic amongst all those guys at the time.

greglepore 01-30-2021 04:38 PM

or pollock. In Japan they actually make this stuff really well.
I actually like the imitation lobster, with lemon juice, sundried tomato, a touch of mayo, capers, and cayenne. Picked it up from a local barfood spot, and its the best $5 seafood cocktail you'll ever have.

cabmandone 01-30-2021 04:56 PM

I bet it's Emu.

Yes pollock. That’s what I meant, burbot is a freshwater fish...

Does that mean a krabby patty is not really crab? Kind of makes sense, what with Mr. Krabs being a crab. That would just be weird. Like soylent green for humans.

cstreit 01-30-2021 09:25 PM

Someone knows. Never had it myself. I’m curious now though.

Bob Kontak 01-31-2021 08:07 AM

I only get the tuna sub at Subway smothered in synthetic black olives.

I genuinely like the sammich.

gregpark 01-31-2021 08:58 AM

Never tried the subway and now I never will. Don't even eat real canned tuna too often. I don't hate it but my brain is telling me I'm eating cat food. Now fresh raw Ahi is another thing, yum

stevej37 01-31-2021 09:11 AM

Tuna is one of the more healthy foods to eat.....just be sure to squeeze all the oil out before eating.

RWebb 01-31-2021 01:37 PM

except for the toxic mercury from coal plants (mostly in China)

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/mercury-in-tuna#contamination

Quote:

Tuna contains more mercury than other popular seafood items, including salmon, oysters, lobster, scallops and tilapia (1Trusted Source).

This is because tuna feed on smaller fish which are already contaminated with varying amounts of mercury. Since mercury is not easily excreted, it builds up in the tissues of tuna over time
