Lobster

Posted by ChroniclesCapersCanards
Lobster Lobster is an expensive food, but it is definitely worth it because it is extremely delicious. It is one of my favorite foods and is definitely my favorite kind of seafood. It’s also my Dad’s favorite seafood. My dad likes his lobster boiled and with butter. I personally like lobster rolls the best. Lobster can be in soups, bisques, and Cappon Magro (which is a salad of seafood and vegetables served on hard tack) also. It can be boiled or steamed and is usually served with clarified butter. The butter gives the lobster a sweeter taste which is why people like it so much. But, there is some danger in eating lobster because it has an average mercury level of 0.31ppm. Most of the meat in a lobster is located in the claws of the lobster. Meat is also located in the tail (usually the best meat) and where the claws connect to the body. People say the best lobster comes from Maine. I’ve never compared any lobsters so I’m not sure. Overall I think lobster is delicious and is definitely one of my favorite foods.

Tommy...
A couple of things come to mind...
I'm not sure who said it first, but I have heard lobster tagged as the "cockroach" of the sea.
Certainly makes the little red guy sound less appetizing.
Despite it's repulsive nickname, I enjoy a lobby every now and then myself. Ate a couple this summer while on the Cape with my family. Used the leftover meat (can you imagine!!!) in a decadent lobster mac and cheese.
Yum.
As for lobster rolls, I had the most delicious lobster roll ever in Brooklyn at a street fair called Smorgasbord.
FYI.
