A lobster is a big bug. They taste OK but too expensive here for what you get. The bigger the better.In Canada I look around and can find them much cheaper buying them right off the boats.

If you don't like lobster, you probably haven't had it cooked correctly. All seafood can be tricky if you don't know what your doing. That being said, the best eating on the planet are King crab legs. There is no comparison.

One thing about seafood is that fresh caught is by far the best. Too far inland and its not the same.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

If Blue Crabs grew as large as lobsters, there would not be a market for lobster.
When early settlers arrived in America, the lobsters could be picked up on shore in large numbers. There was a law passed to limit the number of days servants could be forced to eat lobsters.

I went to Alaska and ate seafood everywhere I went. It was all deep fat fried. WHAT???? Best thing I had up there was prime rib. Probly from Nebraska.

But if they grew to the size of lobsters, which would you prefer? Don't know.Could never even get enough to taste them.

I like lobster. I like scallops and clams better. We crab and I probably like blue crabs the best except for all the work to get to a tiny bit of meat. Lobster wins the effort vs. quantity competition.

Fresh king crab is un-real. I get/catch fresh clams, scallops, dungies, shrimp, prawns, but king crab rules the day like no other. And while I have never had Maine lobster off the boat, I have had spiny lobster off the boat, on the west coast
Made it almost 3 years without censor!
