About this reel
This reel narrates the surprising journey of lobsters from being considered low-class food fit only for prisoners and servants to becoming a luxurious delicacy. It begins with colonial America, where lobsters were so abundant they washed up in piles on beaches, leading them to be seen as cheap and disdainful. The narrative then explores how railroads and refrigeration technology in the 1800s enabled live lobster shipments to inland cities, sparking their newfound popularity among wealthy diners. This video is perfect for food enthusiasts or anyone curious about culinary history.
