Answer 3

Well, I'm not sure If crabs like salads,
But I would start by adding sea-foody tasting things,

If your crab seems sociable you could always just come out and say it....."Look Ive never made a crab a salad, what do you guys like In a salad"?

He wont think your stupid, he knows your ONLY HUMAN!

The easy way, which I rather enjoy, is one that I came up with.

1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Pepper
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
1 Teaspoon Mustard
1/2 tsp Vinegar

I toss it with some Thousand Island dresssing and wait until the crab gets home from work, then serve it to him with the rest of his dinner. ;-)
