  And only became associated with luxury due to the insane costs of producing and shipping them at scale. Well, for the seafood anyways.

    Don’t forget the scarcity through over extracting! Nothing says luxury like near extinction.

    Shipping used to be the hard part. Eating caviar in Russia in a place with sturgeons nearby was easy enough, serving it at a fancy diner in Berlin or Paris involved insane logistics for the time.

  Mussels, oysters and lobster (prawns as well) really pisses me off. Lobster costing like $30-40 a fucking tail is absolutely insane. They are pretty much the rabbits or rats of the ocean.

    May I presume you live far from where lobsters are found? In places local to where they’re caught they are no where near that expensive. Transporting live lobster is probably far more expensive than most other foods.

  Mussels, at least, are still fairly cheap. For now.
