Which statement about Colossal Crab is accurate?

• A. It is primarily sourced from the Pacific Ocean; Lump crab meat is primarily sourced from red crabs; Medium quality
• B. It is primarily sourced from the Atlantic Ocean; Lump crab meat is primarily sourced from blue crabs; Sweet, tender meat; Highest quality
• C. It is farm-raised in the Arctic
• D. It is primarily sourced from the Atlantic Ocean & Gulf of Mexico; Lump crab meat is primarily sourced from blue crabs; Sweet, tender meat; Highest quality

Answer: (D)

Understanding seafood sourcing and the labeling of lump crab meat helps you read menu descriptions accurately. Colossal Crab is described as being primarily sourced from the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, and the lump crab meat used with it comes mainly from blue crabs, known for its sweet, tender texture. This combination is labeled as the highest quality, which is why this option best fits the description.

The other scenarios don’t align with how Colossal Crab is typically sourced or how lump meat is defined: one places the origin in the Pacific Ocean or even the Arctic without relevance to Colossal Crab, and another omits the Gulf of Mexico while still describing high quality. The most complete and accurate match includes both the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico regions, the blue crab lump meat, and the sweet, tender, highest-quality characterization.
