A rider on a New York City subway captured the moment a fellow commuter took up several seats on the train in order to snack on a bounty of lobster.
The bearded man — dressed in a camo green hat, thick navy jacket, and tan khakis — could be seen prying open the lobster shells with his bare hands and feasting on the meat. He enjoys the meal with his legs crossed, unbothered by anyone else on the train despite the fact that he and his lunch are taking up several seats.
It was not immediately clear which train the man was riding or when the incident took place. This is not the first time a lobster meal has been enjoyed in the city’s less-than-clean transit system.

Interesting.
I do not see any melted butter to dip the lobster in. What a way to waste good lobster!
Lemon. Lemon is the best for any shell fish.
By the bracelet on his wrist, the guy might have just got out of the hospital.
I just BBQed Salmon with lemon juice and Seattle’s finest Pike Place Fish Market “Our Own Rub.” You must BBQ salmon with a temperature probe to 125 degrees. I always have a chunk of apple wood smoking before I put any meat in. If I was doing lobster it would be with a probe in the main body cavity for an internal temp of 140 degrees.
I do put a little lemon in the dipping butter along with a pinch of granulated garlic and a pinch of salt.
We have live lobster here which are kept in large salt water aquariums.
Homeless man eata better than the working class

I add a hefty sprinkle of Seafood Magic to the butter.

Yummilicious...
$11.50 per pound in the Maritimes right off the boat... That’s pricy stuff. By the time it gets to a restaurant and on your plate... It’s likely $40 per pound or more. So that’s one expensive snack.
If you’re on the other coast, near SFO, I can heartily recommend the New England Lobster Market and Eatery in Burlingame.

These guys are a wholesaler for the whole SF Bay Area, huge lobster tanks. But also run a retail restaurant that is excellent, see the pics and reviews at the link above. Neat place, I went a few years ago.
Bro knows where the good dumpsters are located!
And wonderful shots of the intact World Trade Center.
I think that’s called Conspicuous Consumption.
really. he probably would have been thrown off for eating peanuts, allergies everywhere.
I noticed that bracelet. It’s got me wondering, too.
Lobster take-out from the hospital?
I asked the vendor who was furiously packing up how much for a big box of Golden Crabs and he said he would let them go for 10 bucks, a BIG discount.
Anyway, on my drive back to Broward I was focused on only ONE thing---eating those crabs. When I got home I melted a lot of butter and stripped down completely nekkid except for my slippers so as not to get the butter all over my clothes.
It was a memorable meal. I even remember the TV movie they had on the tube---a movie bio about Rudy Giuliani (back when the media still treated him as the hero of 9/11).
BEST crab dinner I ever had!!!
Why don’t lobsters give to charity?
Because they are shellfish
