My sister caught a 10lb scallop when she was down there. Just imagine a 10lb scallop, that's bigger than your head. She and her entire group pulled out poured some soy sauce over it and ate it as sashimi. Best sashimi ever she said.
The beaches are paved with halibut in the village i used to visit. Its funny because the locals are so used to eating prime seafood all the time that they are much more excited about some grilled chicken than lobster or fresh halibut.
Apparently back in the 1920's when lobster was dirt cheap and only poor people ate it, there was a prison in Maine that served lobster every night. The prisoners were so upset about being served lobster every night that they rioted.

That's so oddly specific, I can't imagine you come across too many restaurants that serve a fried chicken burger with egg on top. Is that like a regional thing to do that?
Now that you mention it though, whenever I go to fast food burger places I usually get the crispy chicken sandwich. I don't usually get the burgers.
i've only ever gotten it up in the yukon, so perhaps it is--there are strange things done in the midnight sun, by the men who moil for gold
it's stole my heart i'll tell you what

Usually that is brought up in a debate on eating bugs, the people who want to convince you eating bugs is good, throw that out as an argument. I don't really care if people thought lobster was substandard food back then, you're never going to convince me bugs are as tasty as a big fat lobster tail that's been grilled. Keep your bugs, give me your lobster, everyone wins.

Well cockroaches are actually similar anatomically to lobsters. I'd eat some beetles, maybe even cockroaches as long as it was a farmed roach.
I would try it, I can imagine it's probably pretty crunchy. I heard grasshoppers taste like the tip of a fried chicken wing.
A few decades from now, lobsters will probably be extremely rare and expensive or even extinct. Certain types of bugs will probably make pretty decent lobster substitutes when that happens.

I would stake money on lobster becoming more populous as temperatures increase.

Burgers are something that I usually ignore on a menu because they are usually just a simple burger. When I do go to a place that takes pride in their "signature" burger or whatever you want to call it, then I will sometimes check it out. Theres a place in Portland called Nosh Kitchen Bar, they have the Nosh burger.
From their website " All animals are pasture raised, grass fed, and grain finished for the last 90 days of their beautiful lives. We use ground beef chuck, beef brisket, all-natural pork shoulder, house-cured bacon, fresh garlic and rosemary.
NOSH BURGER NOSH patty / blue cheese spread / roast garlic balsamic sauce / smoked bacon / fried farm egg / grilled brioche bun"
with carmelized onions and fucking bacon ground into all their beef, it's fucking awesome.

Fried eggs on burgers is the shit. I like to make a bacon/onion jam for my burgers as well.

I have had a chocolate bar with ants in it, tasted like a nestles crunch, and also chocolate covered grasshoppers. They were good too. Those fucking scorpion suckers look gross though, I'm not doing that!

The only one that would gross me out are the worms or any type of larvae.
There's a company on the east coast that sells edible crickets, grasshoppers, and silkworm pupae chips. I could deal with all of them except the silkworm, I can just imagine biting into one of those and all this slime and jelly oozes out.
