  2. Whisk mayonnaise, milk, vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl until smooth. Add pasta, imitation crabmeat, peas, carrots, celery, green pepper, and onion, mix until evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate to let flavors combine, at least 5 hours.
