How much does a large lobster cost each, and what's the difference from crawfish?

Crawfish is a food we love very much in daily life. When the summer heat is at its peak, a plate of stir-fried crawfish with cold beer, you could say the joy of life is all in this moment. But what we're talking about here is not crawfish, but the large lobster as opposed to crawfish. Let's take a look at the differences between large lobster and crawfish and its price.

The large lobster is the general name for species under the family Palinuridae, order Decapoda, class Malacostraca, phylum Arthropoda. It is mainly distributed in Central and South America and northeastern Mexico. There are about eight species in our country, and what we're talking about here is the Australian large lobster. Crawfish, also called red swamp crayfish, belongs to the genus Procambarus, family Cambaridae, and is widely distributed in the mid-latitude regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Although both are called lobsters, it can be said that these two are not the same species.

This product, the large lobster, can be found in markets everywhere, but the consumption levels in different regions differ, so how much a large lobster costs per jin in each place is not absolutely uniform. In large cities with high consumption levels, a jin of large lobster may cost more than two hundred yuan. But in a small place, then it might be bought for just over one hundred yuan. In addition, how much a large lobster costs per jin also depends on where everyone buys it. For example, at a wholesale market, the price per jin is mostly two to three hundred yuan, but if tasted in a hotel, then six or seven hundred or even over a thousand yuan is also possible.

This method often appears at people's wedding banquets and is the main dish of the banquet, with a slightly sour taste.
