Seeker's post reminded me of an old fella from Maine who once told me that Maine fisherman in the early 1900's used to give the lobsters that got caught in their nets to the "poor people". (I didn't believe him

So having been reminded.. I decided to check it out. It seems the old fella was right.
Interesting site.

oh.. and to stay on thread.. I agree no celery or other stuff except maybe a dash of Paparika.
