It still boggles my mind how lobster went from so bad you couldn't even serve it to prisoners to a luxury food item.

What the fuck is wrong with our species??

If you were served a slurry of rotting, partially cooked lobster and lobster shell, you would probably still think it's gross.

Turns out it's better boiled, broiled, and served with tons of butter.

Y'know that's fair. I guess I didn't really think about how it was served.

And with the way humans have been documented on they way they treat prisoners it shouldn't be so shocking to me.
