Its a time game......In the restuarant you may be unaware of how long your wholesaler held the stones.......fresh stones, if buried in ice, in a container that drains well could easily last 5 days......if your wholesaler held them for 4 days....don't expect 5 days......if they go bad in two, and you handled them properly, ask for a credit

How's this for a first post to this forum, does anyone out there have any info on shelf life of Stone Crab Claws. Considering their
cost they seem to "go south" quickly even packed with ice. Any ideas or comments?
