How do you like your lobster?

A strategist hired by the Governor's Lobster Task Force Committee (did you even know there was such a thing?) has basically broken down 4 types of people when it comes to eating lobster. Which one are you?

• Traditionalists—they want steamed lobster, at picnic table with family and are comfortable with the process of cooking, cleaning, eating while enjoying family time This group accounts for 11 percent.
• Adventurous—total foodies; they love food and will try different foods any way they can get it. This is the marketplace, along with fine fast diners. Charts showed 29 percent for this group.
• Convenience seekers—those surveyed said they would eat it if it is easy. The lazy lobster eater makes up 30 percent of the survey.
• Aesthetic and moral protesters—PETA accounts for 11 percent.

Me? I'm a traditionalist all the way. I'll cook it myself. I'll dig right in and yell at my table mates for being squeamish.
