I've hand caught plenty of wild lobster in both examples and can say it's likely the marketing of the tropicals that has garnered the popularity.

Our sight heavily impacts how we taste things. The spiny lobsters are more attractive than the Maine ones, so we think it must be "sweeter" or "more savory". It'd be interesting to do a blind taste test with regular people and see if they notice a difference. All said, King/snow crabs are definitively better than any lobster. I can get a couple lobster tails for about $10 at the right time of year, but crab legs are always heavy on the wallet, and deservedly so. They're literally seafood candy.

They all definitely have a different flavour and texture. It can also vary wildly between the individual lobster itself depending on where it is in its moulting stage and it’s reproductive cycle. These ornate lobsters are the worst tasting but they are just the most impressive to look at on the table which is why they are so expensive. If your ever in Australia try a southern rock lobster, they are the best eating and are the closest to crab

@alienandro

its actually the best as a healthy lobster but its actually different, like when you eat fish ex like tuna, tuna have different type, the one is more like moist and the other one is more dry meat. the lobster is the same too and actually any other meat that you eat is different from other meat that people eat in different country like australlian beef, wagyu beef(japanese beef), and others

Sounds like the standards are both ensuring supply and keeping the prices high, which is a balance. The supply can't become too high, or the price drops, which the rules help, but they must keep interest over long periods, so they raise the lobsters as well.

The other point being made is that this immorality is just the cost of what it means being human (called the banality of evil), and that we in some sense have to do this commodified mass market slaughter of species in order to be privileged to be alive ourselves...nobody is exempt from that evil...that if you live in a 1st world country and shop at a grocery market, you are participating in that mass market slaughter to some causally disconnected degree. Humans know this but we simply ignore it because if we thought about just how terrible it is...well it would be hard to live with ourselves.

Like most spiny lobster, pearl lobster have a larval stage where they drift with the wind and current. For pearl lobster this stage is roughly 6 months so the source of Indonesia's lobster may be somewhere else in the Indo Pacific that's 6 months "upstream". Similarly, the Caribbean spiny lobster found in Florida that resemble Pearl Lobster likely came from parents on a reef in Central America.

Currents are complex, they'll loop around an ocean basin or fluctuate in strength seasonally. Storms and periods of sustained winds can also move water against the prevailing current. My point was simply that due to their long larval stage, managing lobster as a sustainable resource is quite complex since the parent population may not even be in the same country.

I dive for these commercially in Australia and they are the worst tasting lobster out of the 8 species we have here. Their flesh is tough and has a very strong flavour. The only reason they are the most valuable is because they are colourful and when they’re large their legs get very long so look impressive on a table.

We have it in Maldives we eat it every day

Living in places with good food like this everywhere must be nice it’s regular to them

So a Kilogram is 2.2 pounds and commercial lobster is approximately $25/lb using the author's calculations at [$50/KG] making the pearl lobsters at [$50/lb]. TWICE as much as the commercial variety. Just curious as to how the factor 6X more came to be? Any mathematicians out there that can explain this arithmetical anomaly? No Jethroes please! lol.

A normal lobster can cost 5$ to 25$ per pound and 1 million rupiah is 64$. Sounds a lil like they just winged it.

@@coryyoung7544 Well, it still doesn't explain his math, since rupiahs weren't even mentioned in his opinion. IE: Commercially bred pearl lobsters sell for about $50 per kilogram, while wild-caught pearl lobsters sell for $99 per kilogram. This makes pearl lobsters more than six times as expensive as Maine lobsters.

@@pauleywallnutz9429 one of the fisherman says each lobster can be worth 1-1.5 million rupiah $64-$96. They also might have been using the old numbers Maine lobster was selling for $8-$11 a pound last year It looks to be back up to $20-$25 though right now. Idk I can't actually tell you how they messed that up.

NGL when they said that the lobsters' largest communities are in Indonesia I pictures a tiny lobster society with little lobster savings branches and lobster elections.

They are expensive because someone convinced people that have money that they need to have it. They gave it a fancy name and tricked valuable cash out of gullible pockets. It's brilliant and good on them lol

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven, you must become a new creation and be born again by responding to the Holy Spirit. - Matthew 7:21-23, Revelation 3:15-16 cf. Hebrews 10:26-29. Pay close attention to your thoughts and how you respond to your inner monologue because it has a greater impact than you think. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life, and do all that you can to follow His ways.
