The “Select Seafood Gift” (選べる海鮮ギフト) lets you choose between two types – raw cut snow crab and raw snow crab thick legs in full portions – each in 1 to 3 packs, so it’s easy to get stuck on “which one fits me” and “how many people it feeds.” The seafood fukubukuro (lucky-bag set) options listed in the purchase-selection field (the options that include sea urchin and salmon roe) are out of stock as of September 25, 2026, so this article does not cover them. Please check the available options on the purchase page. This article organizes the publicly available product information and reviews for the Select Seafood Gift from Sore Demo Kani o Kurau (sorekani) into five points: amount, storage method, ingredient labeling, suitability as a gift, and what reviews say.

|---|---|
| Type | Not confirmed |
| Amount | The specifications are as shown below under “What You Choose (Affects the Contents).” A guide to how many people each option serves does not appear in the product page text or the landing-page images, so this is not confirmedSource: product page purchase-selection field (viewed September 25, 2026) / landing-page images (viewed September 25, 2026) |

The seafood fukubukuro and the specification with mid-year gift (ochugen) noshi are out of stock as of September 25, 2026Source: product page purchase-selection fields “Choose a Product,” “Choose the Number of Packs,” and “Choose Your Specifications” (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| Cut | The option names are “raw cut snow crab” (生カット本ずわい蟹) and “raw snow crab thick legs, full portions” (生ずわい蟹 太脚フルポーション). Which parts each option contains is not confirmedSource: product page purchase-selection field (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| Storage Method | The crab is described as flash-frozen at a factory right after landing. Instructions say to thaw under running water until the meat softens (about 5-8 minutes). Home storage information such as storage temperature does not appear, so this is not confirmedSource: product page landing-page images 3, 9 (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| Best-Before Date | Only the “raw cut snow crab” option states late November 2026 on the product page (current display at time of viewing, subject to change). The best-before date for the thick-leg full portions is not confirmedSource: product page purchase-selection field (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| Country of Origin | Not confirmed |
| Place of Processing | Not confirmed |
| Condition / How to Eat (Is Heating Required?) | The option names include “raw” (生) (raw cut snow crab / raw snow crab thick legs, full portions). For the raw snow crab thick legs, full portions, the landing-page images on the sales page say “OK for sashimi” (お刺身可), and crab sashimi and crab shabu-shabu are given as example ways to eat it. For the raw cut snow crab, the example ways to eat it in the same landing-page images are crab hot pot and grilled crab, and no guidance on eating it raw appears (not confirmed. Landing-page image 3 includes a statement that the shop delivers its snow crab in general fresh enough to be eaten raw, but which option this refers to is not specified). The purchase-selection field shows no guidance on whether it can be eaten raw or needs to be cooked. Please check with the shop before purchasing whether it can be eaten rawSource: product page landing-page images 6, 7 (viewed September 25, 2026) / product page purchase-selection field (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| Thawing Method | Instructions say to thaw under running water until the meat softens (about 5-8 minutes)Source: product page landing-page image 9 (viewed September 25, 2026) |
| After Opening | Instructions say to cook it within one hour of thawing/opening. After thawing, it may turn black if left for a while (black discoloration, described as caused by oxidation of bodily fluids and said to be harmless to eat); instructions say that if this bothers you, cooking it thoroughly keeps it from progressing. If you can’t finish it after thawing, instructions say to cook it and then keep it in the refrigerator. Instructions say not to refreeze it after thawingSource: product page landing-page images 9, 11 (viewed September 25, 2026) |

Ingredients and Allergen Labeling
Within what we could check (the product page text and landing-page images, viewed September 25, 2026), none of them show an ingredient list, additives, or allergen labeling. This item is not confirmed.
Crab is one of the specified raw materials (8 items) that must be declared under Japan’s Food Labeling Act. Because crab is an ingredient, people with a shellfish (crab) allergy cannot eat this product. The seafood fukubukuro options that include sea urchin and salmon roe are out of stock as of September 25, 2026, so this article does not cover them. If you would like to check the additives used in processing (such as antioxidants), please ask the shop before buying or check the food information label on the product when it arrives.

Suitable as a Gift?
As of September 25, 2026, only the “standard packaging” specification is in stock, and the specification with *noshi* support (mid-year gift *noshi*) is out of stock. The type of inscription, gift boxing, and message cards do not appear on the product page or the landing-page images, so this is not confirmed. On the other hand, “social gift sending” (ソーシャルギフト, sending a gift without knowing the recipient’s address) is supported (confirmed September 25, 2026). If you’re considering this as a gift, checking the following with the shop before buying can help avoid mismatched expectations:
- Whether *noshi* and inscriptions (such as *uchi-iwai* return gifts or *oseibo* year-end gifts) can be provided
- Whether gift boxing, gift wrapping, or a message card are available
- Whether you can specify a delivery date/time the recipient can receive it, since it arrives via frozen delivery
