Sylvia's comments: this was SERIOUSLY yummy! I'd wanted to try it ever since I saw it in the newspaper food section years ago. However, at today's prices, I wasn't going to waste real crab -- I used the fake stuff and chopped it pretty fine. It was delicious on bread and crackers. I thought the Parmesan overwhelmed the other flavors, but Peter thought the "sourness" of the artichokes (which he doesn't like) was the predominant flavor. I'll definitely serve this one when we have guests over, our family couldn't finish it!
