is the water boiling before you throw the lobbie in ?

[Mr Darn]

And... is it still alive?

[Monsta®]

well obviously! it wont cook if its not boiling! and yes lobster is better alive you dont want any of that frozen crap. plus if its dead how can you tell how long its been dead for.

for those who think boiling lobster alive is cruel can stab the critter through the head with a sharp knife before hand!

yes! If I follow your instructions I would be eating the shell! How do I shell it and prepare it? I have one here, and it's a bit hard on the tooth with the shell on!

Actually I'm pointing out the flaws in your recipe. I'm sure there are many others who, having followed your instructions, would be left with a boiled crustacean and no knowledge of what to do with it. Enlighten us, before copious lobsters go to waste. Do I crack open the shell and eat all inside, or are there things I need to do? At least I included dressing my ham sandwich!

Wey your the only one complaining! brian and john never questioned how you actually eat the lobster as there not a stupid as you!

[Monsta®]

Am nearly sure you just crack it in half and scoop the meat out. But if you want to bite through the shell, fair do`s! each to their own

New dentures required, I think. Monsta, however, has topped me in the pedantry stakes - he's right, it does say 'how to cook' and not 'how to eat'!

Is it all sorted now ??
