Cutting out rock lobster is no great loss for us. The only lobster is North Atlantic lobster.

So long as they do not do this with steak. The cost of steak is also going through the roof these days.

Cost cutting to keep the price low to get on the ship. I can understand this being done. I guess I'll order Shrimp on fancy night now. I know I will not starve, the food on Carnival is pretty good.

That is too bad. But, the cost of lobster is rising so I understand. Usually money is the main factor.
