Interesting what you can learn from this forum. I didn't know that lobsters lived in Maine, I rather thought Louisiana were famous for its lobsters.

Maine lobster is thought by many to be the best in the world.

I ought try it, but unfortunately I don't like to have living animals thrown into boiling water.  Undecided

If it makes you feel any better, that sounds isn't them screaming and they barely feel anything!
