Frozen vs. Fast vs. Fancy Food Taste Test

[@stephenward2743]

Honestly with the Lobster thing, I think Links theory about it being freshly cooked played a big part. Alongside that it probably would have been flash frozen soon after they slaughtered the lobster which basically keeps it as fresh as when it was slaughtered.

[@frankrobinson2871]

Thats why almost all restaurants and myself buy live lobsters, boil them, and eat them right after.

[@13374me]

yeah, that's why if you live near the centre of NA you should really be buying frozen seafood, unless it's shipped alive, like mussels, lobsters etc.

[@ARMANDO17able]

Exactly. Seafood does not reheat well. The fresher the better. The frozen one being made in-house (in-studio?) had a big effect on the final quality. The only thing they tried that reheats well was the chowder, and surprise.... it was a clear win for the fancy option

[@Elemental3dprinting]

this is like that episode of kitchen knightmares with the freash frozen guy. " we make freash then we freeze it so its freash frozen"

[@lapisdragon8]

It was also probably cooked by Josh who might very well be a better chef than the chefs that prepared the rest of the dishes.

The "she" in that tongue twister is actually Mary Anning. A real life shell seller who also collected fossils and made a good contribution to paleontology in the 1800s. She discovered the first full Ichthyosaurus skeleton.
