Thats only $3 a pound, Guess that other $9 a pound they add at the store is due to evil capitalists.

I too am not a lobster fan. I mean I don’t hate them. A well cooked lobster served with pure melted butter is quite Ok and certainly not anything to be puked upon
However, I don’t get the huge fuss about it. It is not like a nice cut of beef, or a cornish hen or a berkshire pork or a nice Aussie lamb chop or even a nice steak of tuna.
It is just OK. Quite unlike the hype it generates.

And black-tip shark is good eating, too.
"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Giant water-borne bugs. I'll pass, thanks. When the Pilgrims came, the Indians would use lobster only to bait their cod-fishing hooks, or in dire emergencies when people were starving.

The price of steak here in Ohio has more than doubled in the past three years. $4.99/lb was a steady price for T-Bones and Porterhouses for a decade, now a sale is $9.99.
It'll be a tossup as to which is cheaper this spring.

I lived on Cape Cod one summer when there was a glut. We bought the smallest (and tastiest) ones super fresh for two bucks a pound on the docks. It cost us hardly any more than a meal at McDonalds. Actually got sick of it and didn’t touch lobster for a good three or four years after that.
I think this boom has nothing to do with global warming as the shriekers would have you believe. Instead, it is a delayed effect of the collapse of the cod fishery. Cod eat trillions of young lobster every year, or used to until they were overfished to commercial extinction. As the fishery recovers, which it will, the lobster harvest will fall precipitously, and the global warmers will shriek even louder. Mark my words.

I’ve always been partial to seafood, so this is good news.

Most lobsters end up being brokered and processed in Canada.
We raised the fuel tax so high it’s much cheaper to buy fuel in Canada,so they drop their load while there.
Our new Gov is workin’ on it.
