Some foods are more difficult to eat than others. Can you imagine the first person to eat a lobster? He must have been brave. Even today - millions of years after that first taste - some people can't bring themselves to crack open the bright red animal on their plate. Pity — the white meat hiding underneath is delicious. Lobsters are difficult to eat because their bones are on the outside — they have what's called an exoskeleton. Irrfagine how difficult it would be to move if your skin were made of bone! Lobsters have 10 legs, so they get along just fine. People who eat lobster need special tools to get through the hard exoskeleton. You could say thatlobsters are left handed — their left claw is much larger than their right. If you're ever handling a live lobster, this is the claw to watch out for. It's called a "crusher" and that should give you a fair idea of what it can do. Many people wisely tape this claw shut. There are several types of lobsters, just as there are several types of dogs. The lobsters we eat are called "Homarus Americanus" and are found in the salty ocean water off the east coast. This type of lobster is the St. Bernard of lobsters. The largest Homarus in the world weighed 19.25 ke and is on display in the Boston Museum of Science. Fishermen catch lobsters in traps, or pots that are dropped over the side of Cape Islander boats. The lobsters crawl in and are kept alive until just before eating. Lobsters can last up to 24 hours out of the sea if they're kept cool. Many lobster restaurants have salt water aquariums to keep lobsters alive in. Despite their unusual appearance on a plate, lobsters are delicious. Go to your nearest lobster restaurant and get cracking!
