A Crazy, Almost-Food Adventure

On a recent family vacation to Maine, Liz’s 13-year old son Josh decided to test his fishing skills one evening with a hook, some line, and a hot dog. What he caught was this giant lobster (estimated by Josh to be about 7 pounds). Well, since Josh has a conscience (a 7-pound lobster is over 30 years old) and knows better than to eat something he doesn’t have a license to catch, he gladly tossed the giant crustacean right back where he/she came from.

Wow! How surprising it must have been to pull up a lobster on a fishing pole. Kudos to Josh for doing the right thing and letting the crustacean have her freedom. It is also interesting to learn that lobsters enjoy a good hot dog once in awhile. Bet it was all beef!

Yes, it was all beef and nitrite free. Gotta keep those Maine lobsters healthy!
