Blue lobster caught off coast of Scotland: “Blue lobsters are caused by a genetic defect. Rather than containing the pigments that combine to make the normal olive green and brown colour, the shell contains only a blue pigment.” [thanks HLO]

If normal lobsters turn from olive and brown to red when cooked, what happens to these?
Patrick 11 Nov 08
@Benjy They turn red as well. They are only special looking before they are turned to perfection..err cooked.
