Lobster is a luxury item that has been enjoyed by people for centuries. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that lobster was a food of the gods, and it was often served at feasts and celebrations.

Today, lobster is still considered a special occasion food, and it is often served at weddings, anniversaries, and other special events.
