So for those that have had both, how much differance is there between
good frozen crab cakes and fresh crab cakes? I think when I've had the
chance to get fresh crab cakes I've always opted for other crab dishes
since I don't get the chance to get fresh seafood often and I can get
frozen crab cakes at home.

Since I've seen lots of objections to salmon from a can, Spam and other
modern conveniences I imagine folks are going to say the fresh crab
cakes are better, but why are they better?

I have half a dozen cans of crabmeat. Some are earmarked for period
dishes. Any suggestions on good dishes to use the rest in?
