When I lived in coastal New England in the early 2000s, a lobster roll was a hot dog bun with some random lobster chunks and a little bit of mayo, and you could get it at Stop & Shop for five bucks if the lobster catch was doing well.
I live in the Bay Area now and if you see an item called “lobster roll” here it’s probably $25 and it’s on brioche or something, and it’s not even good.
If you live in lobster town, eat lobster rolls. If you live in taco town, eat tacos.

I believe all my comparisons to coach roaches should have gave away how often I pay for lobster.
