Hi Bsto270,
My comment was meant to be a play on the word crabs, as in the tiny communicable grievous parasite versus the much larger and edible oceanic type of "crabs".
But anyway, yes regarding Dungeness crab being a very fine delicacy, it is quite good.
Their shell is thick and they are not huge so, eating them is tedious but, generally worth the effort.
Red king crab here is the one that most folks rave about but, I think it is because they are much easier to split and eat.
A pair of sheet metal shears with small jaws, works the best on all variety of crab here in Alaska(except the communicable parasitic type of crabs).
Someone probably has already thought of a T-Shirt that says: "I caught crabs in Alaska" or name your spot on the earth where the ocean has edible aquatic spiders.
If not, these might sell well in tourist shops and such.
Cheers,
Velo Dog.
