>Why is an animal that hasn't been boiled to death in scalding hot water yet not bright red?

Ultimate feast

Wait that doesn't make sense, usually things are red before you cook them because of blood and shit.

You know like if you cook a hamburger, or a steak, or a hamburger steak, it starts off red and as it cooks it browns, shouldn't the same principle apply to Lobsters?

>>6650067
No because that is flesh you are cooking. The thing turning red on lobsters is their shell.

Came in to say this.

Cajun chicken linguini Alfredo. I hate seafood so whenever my family wants to go to red lobster, I SMASH that shit. So good.

>the best thing at a seafood joint is their biscuits

>>6650148
Only thing people can agree on.

Bar Harbor Bake:
A linguini pasta bake with a white wine sauce, shrimp, scallions, lobster tail and mussels...its yum

red lobster ain't bad if you aren't paying.

If you went to someone's house and they served you it you'd eat politely.

Raw (i.e. live) lobster is blue/black colour. When cooked the blue/black pigment is dissolved leaving pink/red pigment that was there all along visible.

>The key is a chemical called astaxanthin, which has the orange-red colour of a cooked lobster, and how it interacts with a complex of proteins called crustacyanin which lobsters produce. The reaction of astaxanthin with the protein complex gives the creature its dark blue colour. But crucially, when the lobster is cooked the protein is denatured and the astaxanthin is released and reverts to its orange-red state. This much was known from the X-ray crystal structure published by members of the same team in 2002.

The only reason to go to Red Lobster is during endless shrimp, to fast the day beforehand then go in and eat so much garbage shrimp, butter, and cream that you develop an allergy and go into anaphylactic shock. Do this once a year.

I've gone during endless shrimp. It was just okay. If that's the best dish then I'm completely skipping lobster fest.

>>6650046
Only been to red lobster once. Ultimate feast was good. Cost like $30 though

>>6650680
You can see bits of red.

I remember as a kid (like 17) I put 3 goldfish in the lobster tank. Everyone else was putting quarters andshit

>live lobsters are blue

AT A SEAFOOD RESTAURANT? WHY?

>>6652435
Not everyone wants seafood. Not everyone is convinced Red Lobster is seafood worth eating.

Usually the fresh catch of the day prepared blackened or simply grilled.

I enjoy the shrimp pasta myself, but whenever they have all you can eat shrimp, it's a guilty pleasure for me.
