Crab meat isn't cheap, that's for sure, $15 a pound at Rose's Seafood.

How about Ritz or any of the other buttery/sweet crackers?

I've had probably more of my share of seafood, especially crab over the years and there are 3 types of crab meat..well, technically 4 depending on who you ask.
The 15$ a # is going to be claw meat which is the chewier part you can get in the can.
The most $$$ would be called Jumbo Lump.I myself think this type is too sweet and the crab also has only 2 particular muscles of this kind so I'm sure this is why it's so $$$. Don't get me wrong, it's packed with flavor and tender as can be, but I wouldn't pay that a second time.
Regular Lump and Fin meat are the others. If I had a choice, I'd eat these two types as my first choice..
Just figured I'd throw that out there, hopefully it explains why there is such a huge swing in pricing per #.
