Historically, difference between lobster being a gross seabug for the poor or a delicacy for the rich probably hinges a lot on your ability to procure butter and lemons, amirite?

Have you ever eaten lobster without lemon and butter? It's still pretty darn good

Nope, the change from sea bug to delicacy was driven by 3 things. 1. Overabundance 2. Industrial canning 3. The emergence of cheap railway tickets and coastal access. Industrial canning allowed for mass produced cheap food that people started consuming as a cheap food source. As railway access opened and allowed tourism from to non coastal states, people who wrre eating canned lobster travelled to and created a demand for fresh lobster somewhere around 1880. When ww1 and 2 broke out, lobster's abundance was on a short list of unrationed items which fueled unprecedented consumption by the rich.

What? A friend once took a lobster had such a strange face. I think for a moment he was afraid and let alone say hm eat Soon there will be worse things. Get ready and not only for the lack of water.
