September 25 - National Lobster Day

 

Happy National Lobster Day! On September 25, today takes a taste of a seafood favorite.  
 
The simplest way to enjoy lobster is boiled and then dipped in melted butter. A couple of favorite lobster recipes include Lobster Newburg and Lobster Thermidor. 


It is also the main ingredient in soup, bisque, lobster rolls and salads.

These marine crustaceans live at the bottom of the ocean. If they avoid the lobster pot, some can live up to one century! Even though we consider them a delicacy today, that wasn’t always the case way back when.  


In colonial times, the lobster received very little culinary credit. In fact, the pigs and goats ate more lobster than the well-to-do. 


While lobsters arrive at our tables  bright red, they don’t start out that way. In the ocean, they come in many colors: yellow, green or even blue. 
 
Now that lobsters rank higher on the menu, consider these nutrition facts. 
 
• Lobsters contain no carbohydrates and 27.55 grams of protein per 1 cup serving. 
• In that same 1 cup serving, there’s 129 calories and 1.25 grams of fat.

• Eating lobster offers an excellent source of selenium, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin A, and calcium. 
 

HOW TO OBSERVE 
 
Celebrate by enjoying a delicious and succulent lobster dinner at your favorite seafood restaurant. Try cooking a lobster dish at home. It will wow the family and make it a true celebration.

HISTORY 
 
In 2014, American politicians and senators Angus King and Susan Collins of Maine drafted a joint resolution designating September 25 as National Lobster Day.  


The proclamation recognizes the men and women in an industry, as well as the long and rich heritage, from tide to table.
