Originally yeah, because the beaches were literally covered in lobsters. And people had no idea how to cook them properly. If you kill a lobster the wrong way, it releases a chemical in its bloodstream that makes it taste absolutely awful. That's why people drop them in boiling water, their bodies can't react that quickly and they die before destroying the taste of their sweet, sweet meat.

Indentured servants and slaves used to be fed lobster, then when people realized that they were super tasty when killed properly, YOINK back to eating the worst parts of the pig.
