I've posted this question in the food forum with no replie. Since I think these come from Florida, I thought to post it here

I've found that I can purchase Jonah crab claws at a reasonable price at my local restaurant warehouse.

Are these things any good for eating? DH won't hassle with snow crab legs, neither of us will pay the ridiculous price of king crab legs. And we miss crab.

I have been TOLD that some restaurants try to pass these off as small size stone crab. I've also heard that these are used for crab cakes.

I'd just go buy the damn things and try them, but at a restaurant wholesale house, I'm stuck with a 5 pound bag (frozen).
