OOOOO I hope so! I just did last night for a celebration dinner.

I think it's ok in moderation. As long as you really aren't having any other fish that week.

OK...i just found this website. Lobster is high in mercury but it allows "no more than three 6-oz servings per month" of that fish type.

check out this website.

I do. I'm one of those people with the "everything in moderation" mentality. I eat shellfish once in a while whenever I want. Had seafood twice in one week right after I found out I was preggo because we were on vacation. It's fine, enjoy!

"spiny / rock" lobster is on the lowest mercury list (2 servings per week). "American Main" lobster is on the high mercury list (no more than 3 six oz. servings per month).
