A lobster is a type of marine crustacean distinguished by its large size, long body, and strong, clawed forelimbs. Belonging to the family Nephropidae, lobsters are typically found in all oceans worldwide. It is a high-value seafood commodity renowned for its rich, succulent taste and high nutritional content. Lobster is a versatile product, and it can be prepared using various cooking methods, including boiling, grilling, steaming, and baking. The meat, primarily found in the tail and claws, is characterized by a sweet, tender, and slightly salty flavor, often considered a delicacy in many cultures. It has rich content of high-quality protein and several important vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids. Lobsters are marketed in various forms, such as live, frozen, or processed into products, including lobster tail, lobster meat, lobster bisque, and others. Frozen lobster-based products offer convenience and longer shelf-life, appealing to retailers and consumers who value these aspects.
