Girls, do you know how much lobster that size costs? Mother is going to have a wonderful meal while you eat plain pasta. Smart move on her part.Love his reaction to seeing what appears to be a monster-lobster stalking him.

I’ll go with pasta as well

“The lobster thought that it was bought / To be a pet; instead / It wound up boiling in a pot. / Boy, was its face red!” – Hank Ketcham, “Dennizoo”

Pasta or overgrown spider? No contest.

Dad-a-chum? Dum-a-chum? Ded-a-chek? Did-a-chick?

Please save us for the wanna be Peta activists. Unless you’re a Vegan, you eating an animal.

Me too. I don’t like the taste of crab, so I am not about to waste the money on something expensive like lobster, which I probably also wouldn’t like.

I’ve had lobster quite a few times, even when visiting New England where I figured it was kind of required to eat it. It’s good, but I never thought it was really anything all that special. Given a choice, I would rather eat crab if we’re going with similar ocean denizens. My thought has always been that people like lobster because it’s normally eaten with lots of melted butter. Note: I will admit that having steak and lobster together greatly enhances the taste and enjoyment of each.

I’ll have both!
