No

me neither.

You'd have to pay me 600 dollars to eat that. Or even go to the stinking urban hellhole that is Japan.

>paying $600 for a lobster

That shit doesn't look 100 pounds heavy to me hombre

Nah probably too old

yeah, i'd eat practically anything. but i wouldn't pay $600 for a lobster unless i won the lottery or got a really good job.

What is the point of this? Is it really some unique flavor or is it like fugu that tastes of nothing, yet people pay for the rarity and poison thrill?

>>12232944
No, it's pretty.
I'd put it in an aquarium.

>>12233018
>or got a really good job
That basically is equivalent to winning the lottery in today's economy.

>>12232944
Is it really a lobster though? It doesn't have pincers, so it seems more like a very big prawn.

I wouldn't pay a god damn anything made by some filthy foregner

>street food

You would be the foreigner in this situation.

>>12232944
Checked
I would insist on having intercourse with it first.

I have never eaten lobster what does it taste like?

>>12233060
the braindead niggers who watch this shit can't tell the difference

>>12233060
this is so fucking scary man.
you put that thing near me and i jump into traffic no regrets.

>>12233189
Did you just assume my nationality? Fuck off, retard

>>12233060
PUT THE BUG BACK IN THE WATER YOU FUCKING BUGMEN REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>12233329
You're the one who called a Japanese chef making Japanese food in Japan a foreigner.

>>12233361
Fuck off.

>>12233361
You can't be a foreigner as an American man. All others are foreigners because America owns the world.

Spiny lobsters don't have pincers.

>>12233060
Fookin prawns mate

I wouldn't have eaten it, I would have kept it as a pet/gave it to an aquarium.

>>12232944
No, older animals like that generally have much less flavor and are tough. Same thing with fish. A 2-3lb catfish will be much better eating than a 15 lb monster. Same is true of mammals. A big old buck will generally have rank, tough meat compared with a 2 year old doe. Most people know not to harvest such animals unless for food unless you're in a starvation situation. Let them go, they obviously had good genes to survive that long so let them continue to improve the species. They taste like shit at that point.

>$600
>street food
This doesn't track.

Ok hank

>people pay good money to eat giant ocean spiders
hell no. if you put that thing near me i'd run away. remember watching some video from okinawa or somewhere and this giant fucking crawdad looking thing was just strolling down the street. fucking nips are scared of going outside with wet hair but let monstrosities like that just cruise around town. imagine jogging at 5 am and stumbling over one of those fucking monsters.

like nothing. it used to be considered a trash food until old timey hipsters found it and turned it into the old timey oxtail soup.

>it used to be considered a trash food
... because they hadn't figured out how to transport live lobsters over long distances yet so the only way to get lobster meat beyond the coast was in a tin.
Even today, the primo "soft shell" lobbies are too delicate to export.

>>12232944
not for 600 $. 50 maybe
