I want to eat crab legs for dinner but I'm having a hard time finding calories and serving size information for snow crab legs. Can someone help me?

[KatieAlyse]

The my fitness pal app says 3 legs for 130 calories...but that's just a general. Red Lobster 1lb is 180

[KatieAlyse]

But Hooters says 1lb for 300 calories...

[LiannaKole]

One source says it's ~31.5 calories per ounce.

Hooters may sauté theirs in butter, which would bring up the calories!

"There are 130 calories in crab meat from one Alaskan king crab leg, which is 134 g of crab meat. Of these 130 calories, 111 come from protein, 18.6 from fats and 0.6 from carbohydrates."

Snow Crab legs 1 lb (in shell) = 160 calories.

One of my fave meals. A lb of crab legs, a tbsp of butter, whatever veggie and I'm one happy camper.

Here's where I get confused: Is one "crab leg" just a single digit? Or is it the entire 5-fingered 'hand'? Geez, I can't even phrase the question in a way that makes sense! :shrug

[FrecklesTX]

That's why I just stick with the weight. Hard to do at restaurants I know, but the last time I bought snow crab legs at the store, 2 of the "hands" were 1lb almost exactly.

Wow! I haven't had snow crab legs in forever! Nice to know they're Somalia in calories. If I ever get dragged to a buffet I know exactly what to pig out on.
