Crab Paste Madness

Tom has just noticed that the crab meat paste that he bought from a chain shop called Morrisons has 35% minced haddock and only 20% crab with added sprat. Surely it should be called haddock paste. Another example of rip off Britain. Is Brexit to blame for this? What's going on here guys.

Go back to the 80s and it was the same, nothing to do with being in or out of Europe. If you're pissed at this then you'd be positively seething if you saw what's in crab sticks (or what's not).

What's going on here? Nothing out of the ordinary Tom. Case and thread closed. Next.

Clearly Brexit Tom.

When we were in the EU, the EU definition of a crab was "a crustacean, found chiefly on seashores, with a broad carapace, stalked eyes, and five pairs of legs, the first pair of which are modified as pincers".

Now we're free from all that EU bureaucratic craziness, the UK is free to classify a crab as "anything that is in the sea"; your lucky that your "crab paste" didn't consist entirely of an old oil drum and driftwood.

Surely Tom knows Northerners only eat meat pies, Yorkshire puddings and whippets in flat caps...none of your fancy Southern crab paste?

Crispy sea turns out to be cabbage and wasabi pate is more mustard than anything.

The crab flavour will overpower the other ingredients. So it still tastes like crab

Were it made solely from crab the price would escalate to the point it would not sell.

You could tone it down with squashed Indian people- it’s not as strong tasting but still full of crushed Asian

My whippet loves it as do all of my racing pigeons…Morrisons is too much of a high end retailer for most of us northerners - we tend to trade directly with growers and use the tried and tested bartering system - at a push we might go to lidl for the posh stuff!!

Luckily since brexit we can reclaim the seas and stop the Spanish stealing all our crabs (or something like that)
