I have fed my crabs butternut squash, yellow squash, zucchini, and pumpkin (also members of the squash family) with no problems. They like regular mushrooms, too, cooked or raw, but seem to prefer the cooked ones.
I feed my crabs organic bread made from whole, sprouted grains, containing no flour, sugar, salt, or preservatives. There are not many on the market, and they are expensive, but taste quite good--that is, if you've managed to wean yourself off of bland, processed white and wheat breads. The one I bought is by Foods for Life and has a Bible verse prominently displayed on the packaging. I still only give them bread as an occasional treat, as I think they're better off with whole, raw foods, but I feel better knowing there are fewer toxins in it.
