it was no accident

Have you ever thought about what made the first guy so incredibly hungry that he decided that it was a good idea to eat a lobster? It seems like a very far fetched idea to take a hard shelled creature with large crushing claws and create a meal from it. 

Same thing goes for crabs and crayfish. Who in the world developed a craving for the innards of such creatures!?! But somebody, a very long time ago, must have watched a bird crush the crap out of one of these poor sea critters and eat it. While the bird may have done his culinary chore by instinct, a human actually chose to dine on the same seafood. It was no accident of nature. It isn't as if the lobsters were hanging out in the open field waiting to be ensnared and eaten by the cave fire. 

Now, of course, lobsters are considered fine dining as opposed to sea bird chaff. They are put in tanks on display and people can choose the exact one that they want steamed and served to them with a side of melted butter and a baby bib. I'm sure that is just how the first one was eaten as well.

Yes, Laughingdaughter responded in kind:

You’re right. It wasn’t an accident. When human first ate me, it was in cold blood. They started eating us as soon as we got stranded here after our spaceship crashed. When you aliens eat me, it is in cold blood as well. It is also cannibalism. Aliens need to stick together! Don’t desert me for my tasty innards or eat me for dessert.

Be kind,

Lobster
