You're no Joe Six Pack, but after Thursday's vice presidential debate, you can't stop thinking about
Alaska and its incredible legs...
Good thing Shaw's has just introduced Alaskan King Crab by Mail, giving you a pre-Election Day
opportunity to further examine one of the state's greatest resources. (Your commitment to being an informed
voter knows no bounds.)
Harvested from the Bering Sea's Bristol Bay by the kind of tough skippers you see on Deadliest
Catch, these king crab legs and claws are the same sweet, succulent ones you've sucked clean at the
venerable seafood house for years. Only, now you can savor them in your living room, possibly while watching
how undecided Ohio women feel about the 72nd usage of the word "maverick."
Flash-frozen on ship and overnighted to you from Shaw's downtown restaurant, your order arrives packaged in
a Styrofoam cooler and wrapped in Mylar, along with plenty of lemons, Shaw's housemade mustard sauce, a set
of tongs, loads of napkins and cooking instructions.
Order in advance for your Election Night party, and make sure there's lots of cold beer on hand.
We might even suggest a few six packs.
