Surimi and the Vegetarian Diet
Surimi is a versatile seafood product created by washing and deboning fish, usually Alaska pollock, to extract the meat. This meat is then refined and flavored to resemble shellfish such as crab, shrimp, and lobster. It is a popular ingredient in sushi, seafood salads, and other seafood dishes. Commercially, it is often found in the form of imitation crab meat or sticks.
