We, the Norwegian people, the people that has inhabited Norway for ages. That might be hard for some rootless guy that doesn't really belong anywhere to understand.

Let me modify my statement. On the coast we didn't usually eat the first class lobster because we got paid so well for it, even in the 50s and 60s. Lobsters with only one claw for example would go for half price, and could be eaten instead of sold. In Norway we had a very well developed supply chain for exporting the lobster. I don't know so well about coastal Sweden, but maybe you weren't able to get it to a market that was willing to pay for it.

In Norway we had lobster parks. This on in pic is preserved until today, it had space for 24.000 lobster awaiting export.

Lobster being a delicacy goes back to Roman times, or earlier. "Lobster was cheap prison food until the 50s" is a gigantic cope for people who can't afford it or can't appreciate it. It seems to be true for America, but then again, what do and did they know about cuisine?
