Don't expect too much lobster (like caviar) is basically a Veblen good unless you live somewhere you can get it very cheap
I do like lobster when the price is reasonable. What is true is that it's very delicate so it's really wasted in things like lobster mac and cheese.

Stress is not just a mental state. There are real, physiological changes, such as rising cortisol levels. To say that it is just a "psychology dependent" situation is to say it is all in your head.
