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.
 
Study done by Kristen Bailey, vice president of the Moseley Group.
