So anybody who is on Twitter might have seen that McLobster was trending the last few days. It would seem that either people are either in complete disbelief that McDonald's would put such a decadent food on the menu, or wondering if the tasty treat will make it to their neck of the woods. The fact is the McLobster has been on the summer time menu for years in Nova Scotia! Check out this old commercial I dug up on YouTube.
And while some find this menu item a little surprising, McDonald's is not the only fast food chain. Subway has been known to offer a lobster sandwich in Atlantic Canada. It's not all that uncommon for fast food chains to cater to the regions they serve. And since we are Nova Scotia and boast the best seafood, where better to put a little lobster on the menu.
Yes, it's true you can get a little lobster on the run, but I highly recommend you also take the slow food route. Enjoy the experience at one of our fabulous restaurants, or even get it straight from a fisherman. Tuck in a bib...no one is looking. Have an old fashioned boil up on the beach and just savour the freshness. I prefer my lobster with a side of potato salad and some garlic butter because that's how I grew up with it. But anyway you have it, there is no better lobster than the lobster in Nova Scotia.
From lobster suppers in community halls to five star meals in fabulous restaurants, and from lobster pounds along our coast to buying them right form the fishermen, you are never far from a place to buy it fresh! We even have a few festivals devoted to the little crustaceans. Shelburne County Lobster Festival and Pictou Lobster Carnival are great Lobster themed events.
One more video to have you convinced. Check out A Channel's visit to Stanley's Lobster Pound in Yarmouth last year, and plan your Nova Scotia vacation today!
Of course if your still bent on trying the McLobster, I bet your still Lovin' it!
