Our Wild Lobster is hand-harvested from clean, ice-cold waters off the rocky coast of Maine. Wonderfully moist and slightly sweet, our premium lobster offers unsurpassed texture, ease, and taste.
Vital Choice Whole Split Lobster comes to you in the shell ... and the meat comes out effortlessly, thanks to innovative high-pressure processing.
NOTE: This product's advertised weight includes the shell, as is usual for sale of in-shell lobster.
Single split lobsters (Product # FML201) must be shipped with at least one other frozen item to ensure delivered quality. Please add at least one other frozen item to your cart before you check out.
Features:
Ships frozen
Raw, uncooked
Easy-remove meat
1 to 1.4 lb per lobster (inc. shell)
Fully cleaned, meat and shell only
Sustainably harvested
Product of USA (Maine)
Hassle-free lobster
High-pressure processing totally eliminates the chore of getting the meat from the shell, and delivers every morsel of sweet, delicious meat.
Live lobsters get immersed in a water-filled chamber, where pumps raise the water pressure rapidly and radically.
This sudden, extreme water pressure kills the lobsters humanely within six seconds, and causes the meat to detach completely from the shell.
Then, the pressure gets raised further, to 87,000 pounds per square inch, to kill off any bacteria or other pathogens.
Following this innovative process, it's incredibly easy to remove the lobster meat from each side of the split shell.
Last but not least, any leftover shells are given away to local farmers to use as fertilizer!
