For me, it would be a waste of a good lobster. I'm a purist. Just
steam it and serve it to me.

Agree, but I'd rather have mine (Australian lobster tail) broiled or
grilled.

And the Atlantic Provinces have great lobsters! Been there and ate many
of them.

Actually went to the Lobster Festival parade in Shediac, New Brunswick
one year. I think we were the only English-speakers there, but we had
so much fun.

Went to another lobster festival in Nova Scotia

I never used to understand the attraction to lobster. It used to be a
heck of a lot more expensive than it is now and the only times I had it
the stuff was dry, tough and flavourless. Then we went to the east
coast. I tried lobster in Bar Harbor and it was incredible. I had it a
few more times in Maine, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. All were so
much better than any I had had here. I think they must have cooked the
daylights out of it here.

I have not bothered to buy it in a restaurant here since then, but I
have had cooked some at home. It is good stuff. Still... for the money,
I would rather have shrimp.

IF WHAT YOU EAT ARE LOBSTER TAILS YOU ARE DEFINITLY AFFLICTED WITH
CHRONIC TIAD. Lobster tails are frozen, frozen shellfish is shit.

I love lobster but whenever I've had lobster dinners in Nova Scotia, for
some reason my lips are sore afterwards. It's the only allergic reaction
I have to anything, except alcohol, which makes me a bit dizzy if I
drink too much:-)

Believe it or not, Black Angus usta do lobster to die for. It was
only $17 and came with salad, side, potato, and small stk. The thing
that caught my attention, though, was the consistency. I could go to
any NorCal BA, from Sacto to Frisco, and get a perfectly broiled
lobster tail, every single time. I usta go to other notable seafood
restos in the SFBA and get crap. Only BA could deliver a perfectly
cooked lobster every time. Then they spoiled it by upping the price
to almost $30. Plus, I go laid off. 8|

That imitation lobster is nasty. So is imitation crab, and the only reasonable
use for pollock is for making cheap fish sticks that are mostly breading
anyway, and are only palatable when doused heavily with lemon juice (or malt
vinegar if you like that).

I had my first raw oyster a few days ago. I guess I'd be willing to eat them
if they were super cheap, but they aren't, so it will probably be my last one.

Make them your starter when you're (BBQ oysters are a West Coast
thing). That way you can still eat oysters, but you won't need as
many as you'd need if they were the main event.
