Buy a whole live lobster, that way you get the claws and the tail. You also get a live lobster that you know is fresh. When they sell the tails only, these are the ones that died on the way back to shore, who knows how long it took for them to get cooked and frozen after they croaked. I suspect that it is also cheaper this way. ( by the lb./kg )

They are low in price at this time and I have cooked them at home, but I also get lobster with garlic and ginger at the local Chinese restaurant.
Do you also buy the live cow? Because the ribeye steak you buy at the meat counter is from the cow that was hit by a train?

I'm very interested in the evidence you have to support your statement that lobster tails come from dead-loss.

I tried the sandwich a few days ago and very disappointed....there were a few chunks of small pieces but the sandwich itself was mainly bun and lettuce....wont be buying again for sure.
After trying the sandwich, and receiving a tiny bun in a box with micro lobster bits swimming in mayo, I phoned Micky D's corporate offices and told them what I received was shameful, and that they are totally misrepresenting this new product in ON. Have you seen the TV ad showing huge chunks of lobster or the pictures in the stores? Give me a break! It's false advertising. They sent me 25 dollars in coupons to make up for my inconvenience.

I didn't think it would be very good. If I wanted lobster, I sure as hell wouldn't go to McDonald's!

If you buy your lobsters at a sea food store. Go ask the guy that sells live lobster, he will tell you. The large grocery stores will sometimes have live as well as boiled whole lobsters. You can be sure they take a look in the tank for the ones that are not moving or are not to lively to boil for you.

There will be no evidence, 'cause it is nonsense. For the same reason, dead cows or dead pigs are not accepted at the abattoir.

Another blast from Mr. Sheissbreath that has more time on his hands then he know what to do with. With 25k plus post , he must have been waiting at his CRT computer screen to comment. You are welcome to believe what you choose to believe.

danmand,

Are you still waiting for a response from the resumes you sent out in 2003?

If I tell you that the guy at the local pizza restaurant buys class 2 or 3 veggies to make pizza that are not of uniform size and shape and are sometimes malformed so that he can buy them cheaper I suppose you would demand proof of that too. If you do not believe me, you are welcome to eat boiled lobster tails to your hearts content. If they do not make you sick, what does it matter? It is only when it is too late and the boiled lobster tails manifest itself as firehose projectile diarrhea that you will believe me.

The point is, DO NOT make accusations you cannot back up with fact.

I have eaten a hell of a lot of lobster in my life. Tails, claws, etc... And never once have I gotten sick, ill, or otherwise negatively affected.
Sooo... even if your groundless accusation is true... lobster tail and/or claws from dead-loss doesn't seem all that bad... although I seriously doubt that a processing plant would risk it's reputation by accepting any form of dead-loss whatsoever...
As always... feel free to refute my opinion with fact...

Oh, and PS... I forgot to mention... a malformed tomato does not equal rotting meat.
Lemme guess... you shop at Longos where every vegetable is uniform in size, shape and weight? Get real.

Have it your way, if you believe they use the liveliest, freshest lobsters to boil in the pot to make you frozen lobster tails. Then that is the way it must be.

BTW- I never said that second or third rate veggies make you sick, it is a matter of economics that the pizza guy buys lesser grade veggies because looks does not matter when it is sliced up and going into a pizza. Just as it is necessary for the lobster fisherman to sell the dead lobster and the ones missing a claw for a lesser price to be processed into tails to make some profit instead of a loss.

You are a useless tool, as always... you have had numerous chances to back up your accusations with fact, yet you refuse to... typical of you.

Real classy, why don't you give us some evidence instead of childish insults?

Your intentions are to agree to be disagreeable, go eat a McLobster for all I care.

danmand, your reputation is less than stellar. Arguing with you is to be pulled into your circular logic and a colossal waste of time.

Nobody is arguing with you. WEe are just asking for evidence to support your nonsensical assertion. So far, the only thing you have posted is that the guy who sells you live lobsters tells you that frozen lobster tails are from dead lobsters.

I agree, I tried it last week and was very very disappointed. It was very small, and was mostly bun, lettuce, onion and the "lobster" had the consistency of canned tuna, didn't taste very good at all. To top it all off it was overpriced. Shame on McD's, shame.

You will have to take it on faith that the fresher lobster is the live one. I am not about to show up at your basement apartment near Church and Carleton with a lobster fisherman wearing a Sou'Wester so that he can testify on my behalf.

Lobster is dirt cheap these days. No doubt McDs made a huge bulk deal and got it for next to nothing. The sandwich is crap. They're making a killing off it
That's because it's not real lobster, probably the fake crab meat (made for vegans) you can buy in supermarkets.

More infantile crap. You are an idiot. let me remind you what you wrote:

When they sell the tails only, these are the ones that died on the way back to shore, who knows how long it took for them to get cooked and frozen after they croaked. I suspect that it is also cheaper this way. ( by the lb./kg )

Why don't you provide some evidence? Let me guess: you pulled this nonsense out of your ass.
