About Crab and lobster paste

Crab and lobster paste is a spreadable or concentrated food product identified by its two named seafood components. The name does not establish their proportions, whether they are the only ingredients, or whether the product is smooth, chunky, cooked, or preserved. It is encountered as a prepared paste ingredient or condiment rather than as unprocessed crab or lobster.

Its colour, saltiness, seafood intensity, and texture can vary with formulation and processing. It may be used in small amounts to add seafood flavour or spread onto food, but the catalogue provides no specific serving context. Nutrition comparisons should use the actual product formulation and distinguish this paste from plain crab or lobster.
