Lobster used to be considered disgusting poor people food, because Newfies could just go along and pick them up by hand off the beach and stuff, back before human overfishing collapsed the Grand Banks ecosystem (but sure, blame the harp seals and bash their babies in the head every year, 300K per. Fuck humans and their spoiled-ass whining about "no babies". Humans don't deserve any.)
Once they became rare and more expensive, then the richie riches started loving paying high prices for it.
Butter really helped everything out.
The war on butter has been a veritable war crime.
same with river fish like salmon
it used to be the protein of paupers, but now? river caught fish is like gourmet delicacy, almost as expensive as beef!
I heard something similar, but it was an ad campaign that made the various types of shellfish expensive and the type of food only the upper class would eat.
That's diamonds.
An ad campaign, really? Anything to not mention how the Grand Banks, and all of the ocean, is being destroyed. I bet people still believe in the "the ocean is an endless source of protein" shit. They said they'd never run out of bison or passenger pigeons, too.
