    I used Louis Kemp imitation crab and I had to use 1/4 tsp of celery salt and 1 TBSP of real celery chopped up because I didn't have celery seed. I also used 1/2 tablespoon of onions because I didn't have chives. However, it turned out great! Every my picky vegetarian daughter loved it and ate TWO! - 10/17/11
