The peekytoe crab story is an interesting one. These are Maine rock or sand crabs which were pretty much a throwaway by-product of lobster fishing before a brilliant marketing move changed their name to "peekytoes" around 1997. They are classified as Cancer irroratus, also known as bay crab and rock crab.
Nowadays this crab is highly sought by the most discriminating chefs around the world.

I saw these crabs on that show lobster men. I also saw on the food channel where they had a crab cake cook off. One guy was using peekytoe meat and the winner of course was using the best crab on earth (blue crab). I thought they stayed north of here. Learn something every day..
