    Did you only eat the lobster or also prepare it? One question I’ve always asked myself is whether you can prepare lobster without cooking it alive?

      I have a bad childhood memory when my grandmother was boiling a big one alive and he got out of the pot, that was like seeing an extraterrestrial coming at you on the kitchen floor

        Hi, usually when you want to add an update to your Original comment, simply edit the original and add an UPDATE: or an EDIT: tag. That’s how I usually see people going about it and I think it makes a lot of sense in thread forums.

    Boiled with the rubber bands? Those are supposed to be removed to avoid rubber flavour in the lobster.

    Hot tips if you’re the cook. If it’s resturant it’s a solid low score review :S

    Lobster’s pretty dope though.

      I bought it cooked from a farmers market. The rubber luckily didn’t change the taste. I’ll keep that in mind if I ever get to cook my own though, thaks!

        Looks like you got a “chicken” (1 to 2 pounds) they are the best! I would rather let the old boys keep up the population than eat them. Tough and I grew up in a New England seafood restaurant. We refused to carry anything bigger.
