RE: frozen crab meat pack

If the water is not added, that is the crab does not gain weight from water during the processing it is not included in most cases.  However, if it is part of a brine that is added to say frozen crab meat, then it should be declared.

Hi,

I have a question on the frozen crab meat pack. Does water have to declared as an ingredient in the frozen crab meat pack? If anyone knows, I would be grateful for their response.

 

Thanks!
