National Lobster Day

National Lobster Day is a holiday dedicated to the crustacean, which until recently was considered a delicacy. Just think, there was a time when Boston beans sold for 53 cents a pound and lobster for 11 cents. At that time, there were so many lobsters in New England that they were served to prisoners in prison. Undoubtedly, this is a product that has gone from rags to riches. That is why September 25 is dedicated to this unusual dish.
