It's The Economy Stupid: National Crab Cake Day

Baltimore was founded today in 1729. The city's greatest claim to culinary fame is that it is the birthplace of the crab cake. The nearby Chesapeake Bay is home to the same species of blue crab that we eat here in Louisiana. Where we made stuffed crabs with ours, they made crab cakes with theirs.  In honor of the birthday of Baltimore, this is National Crab Cake Day.
