Many people call it the tomale (tah-MAH-lee).
You're craving mercury. It's green because that's where the lobster's liver is and processes mercury.
No, lobster meat itself is not poisonous. However, the green tomalley (liver) and the roe (eggs) inside a lobster can contain toxins if the lobster was exposed to certain pollutants. It is recommended to avoid consuming these parts.
Tomalley is the liver and pancreas of the lobster. It looks like a green paste inside the abdominal cavity of a cooked lobster. It is considered a delicacy and many people consider it the best part of a lobster. It can be eaten scooped from the cooked lobster or can be used to flavor sauces. You can spoon it from the abdominal cavity after splitting the lobster down the center of the abdomen. How to open and eat a whole lobster from the shell is explained in the information at the link listed in the related links section.
In actuality, it isn't black. Usually what appears to be black is either the undercooked liver, called the tomally which is a dark green or the undercooked lobster eggs called roe whicj are a dark red.

Most of the "non-meat" parts of a lobster are not edible; the exception is the 'roe', which is the eggs inside a female lobster (taste somewhat like caviar). The green stuff in the lobster is called tomalley and is very edible. It is actually the liver and is very tasty! The part you must watch out for is a small sac behind the eyes of the lobster, it will make you sick! In thirty years of fishing for lobsters and eating them myself this is what I know and know best!
The tomalley in a lobster is its liver and pancreas. When cooked it looks like a green paste in the abdominal cavity of the lobster. Cooked correctly, it is considered a delicacy and is safe to eat as long as the lobster was harvested from pure waters. It can be eaten scooped from the lobster or used in sauces for a rich flavor. Note: this is often misspelled "tamale", a different food in Mexican cuisine
The tamale is found in the main body of the lobster. If you split the lobster in half, you will see a green substance, this is the tamale. If what you see is red, that is the egg sac. You can eat both the tamale and the egg sac, however, I recently saw a warning about eating the tamale. It is basically a filter (similar to a liver in the body), for the lobster, and apparently the warning is that it can be contaminated, however the meat is not affected by this what-so-ever.
It is called "Kekda"....
The liver produces a green liquid called Bile that digests fats ( lipase).
yes,there is a red lobster in green bay
Lobster Trap, or Lobster Cage.
