Until someone proves it im deleting the "crab flavored cakes" fact ~Samnesral

It is also popular to eat Maryland crab cakes with mustard and crackers. Old bay seasoning should be mentioned as well.

Maybe it's true in the rest of the country, but in my 37 years living in Maryland and growing up right on the Severn River, I have never ever heard of a "boardwalk style" vs. "restaurant style" crabcake. Maybe it's because most of the crabcakes I have eaten have been homemade from crabs we caught ourselves.

Just because you are eating a $30 or $60 restaurant/gourmet crabcake does NOT mean there is no filler. You have to ask the server/waiter/waitress. It could be saltines, bread, or panko. It isn't just about the $$$, but rather some cooks/chefs still think that the filler adds something to the crabcake. Some cooks insist the crabcake will fall apart without, but with the right recipe it doesn't.

I edited the thing about broiled crabcakes being lower in fat than fried ones. That should be obvious, all other things being equal, about any kind of food.

I edited the part about crabcakes "usually" being served with some type of sauce to sometimes. local preference, myths about what is really done in Maryland, etc.

parsley, mustard, Worcestershire, baking POWDER, and melted butter are common ingredients in many authentic Maryland crabcake recipes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.85.55.206 (talk) 01:25, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good comments. Would add that there can be no such thing as a vegetarian crab cake. You can perhaps call it a "mock crab cake" if you want to be cute, but by definition a crab cake has to contain crab, sorry. Indeed, would have to wonder why a vegetarian would want something called a "crab cake," even if it is made with mushrooms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.50.90.64 (talk) 00:13, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
