i've tried it so many times, in many different variations and at some of the best restaurants in the world and still fail to see the appeal of it.

it's relatively bland, lacks natural flavour, and has a mediocre texture

why do people love it so much again?

Grilled lobster tails are my favorite

Ugh man I'm craving some now
Scallops are equally good

I agree that lobster is a bit overrated but it can still be really good, especially the tail.

King Crab is a beast tho.

I love lobster, but if it was inexpensive and common, I can see how it would be passed over by other lots of other seafood choices. Scallops are my fav shellfish.

I find the meat more flakier and fatty. Texture like halibut but shellfish type taste.

I was just crabbing last off the coast of White Rock BC. Caught some Dungeness. So good

Just know you'll never know what fresh shrimp, crab, tuna, salmon, or halibut tastes like out of the ocean. By fresh I mean.... caught that day and put on ice immediately, and prepared later.

As a fisherman, though the work is sometimes grueling, it's always nice to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Obviously nobody on here has the know-how or the resources to catch their own shit... bunch of lazy dumb-asses complaining about their Sunday night with their parents at Red Lobster and why "Lobster is so ****ing overrated bro!" :oldlol:

Lobster isn't the best, but who doesn't enjoy lobster knuckles every now and again? And if you've tried is so many times, then maybe save your parents a couple bucks and order the chicken fingers instead. That's more your style anyway.

Fun fact. Lobster used to be for the poor only. Only the low class used to eat it. Now it's a delicacy and the prices are insane.

Speak for yourself. I not only fish, but hunt and grow my own food as well.

Went to florida and we caught fishes. Put that shit on ice and as soon as we got home we fried that shit. BEST fried fish I have EVER ate in my LIFE. I will never forget how amazingly fresh that shit was.

Fried fish is underrated as fck

Does the tail taste significantly different than the body?

Lobster is shit and tastes like poverty food

I refuse to eat lobster. Boiling them alive is inhumane.

And it doesn't taste that good anyway.

Seafood on the whole is overrated and much of it is too weird. I only eat white fish like haddock, cod, sole, and flounder. And canned tuna. That's it.

Probably because seafood is ****ing delicious?

I don't eat live seafood though.

King Crab is a beast tho.
This x1000. Love lobster, but nothing can beat good king crab.

Not king crab, but had this stuffed crab a couple of weeks ago. Shit picture, but delicious AF.

Poor you. Cold salmon and dill sauce is insanely delicious.

If you're not eating lobster because boiling them is inhumane, then you're probably aren't eating any meat period.

Lobster can be very good, rock lobster too...I agree king crab is better though.

don't care much about lobster and it has *nothing* to do with price nor what inhumane act is done to kill them. those are not valid reasons for me to dislike any food. lol

i just don't care about the taste... not my thing.
