1. Well, mainly because they very rarely have authentic crab meat |
|
in them. Honestly I don't mind, they're good even without it.

I have Crab Rangoons and Fried Wontons. Unfortunately, the Fried Wontons don't have any cream cheese in them. They don't have any crabs - or crab meat - in them, either. But there is crab meat in the rangoons. (Not crabs, just crab meat.) There is also cream cheese in them. Yummmmmmmmm.
