JustDoIt130 369 Posted February 20, 2013 call the doc but I would think yes, no worse than chicken imho. But call doc or nutritionist and ask them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dolphintattoo 96 Posted February 20, 2013 It's on my ok list as long as it's mixed with something like mayo to make a mushie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kime-lou 648 Posted February 20, 2013 I would avoid it due to the fact it is highly processed and most kinds contain a lot of carb due to the additives to make it hold together. Check with your doc or NUT to see if it's ok. I was told to try and avoid processed foods and imitation crab is very processed. 1 dolphintattoo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I missed that it was imitation, I agree go with the real stuff, you can get it in with the canned tuna if you don't want fresh in the seafood case (or if your store doesn't have one). Imitation is usually crappy bottom feeder fish mixed with all kinds of weird chemicals and addititves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
