A big lobster like this was spared by Oceana.
Apparently so, because Oceana has taken Peter off the menu, after being "bombarded" with calls begging them to spare the senescent arthropod. It's unclear what's next for Peter, but executive chef Ben Pollinger seems a little frustrated, telling the Daily News, "People have had emotional reactions. What's the big deal, why are we being persecuted for this lobster?" And Oceana patron Beth McAuley wonders, "What does it matter if it's 1, 3 or 70 years old? If you're going to eat it, you're going to eat it."
But do you really want to? A-list chef Michael White (Marea, Convivio, Alto) Tells Bloomberg News, "I can only imagine that it tastes like (expletive) because it’s so old and tough. It depends on how you cook it, but it’s like eating a 70-year-old cockroach." In January, City Crab & Seafood Company released a 20 pound, 140-year- old lobster back into the ocean after PETA complained. So it's nice to see there's hope for lobsters imprisoned in the tank: Get fat and old fast.

Err, we don't *eat* cockroaches of any age...
Is it possible that Convivio, Marea and Altea serve cockroaches prepared by A-List Chef Michael White?
Anything above 4-5lbs is not worth eating; steamed, grilled, or broiled.
yeah ditto all that, who wants to chew a 20 lb piece of lobsterjerkey? he's inedible, that's why he should get a reprieve.
Not me! Sea Kittens or bust.
Send him to the eggroll factory.
Paging Felix!
Felix is doing another 10 days for turnstile jumping.
It probably smells like spoiled milk and wears adult diapers.
My appetite will always trump my compassion. Last night I had duck sliders with froie gras butter sauce. A bit pricey but amazing.
Where?
I wish pinchy could have been here to see this!!!
"too old to eat" is the new "too big to fail"
