Exmouth & lobster
Exmouth sits on (or just inland from) England's South-West coast, where crab and lobster have been potted for centuries — Newlyn was recorded as a harbour back in 1435, and day-boats still work traditional withy pots along the Cornwall and Devon shoreline.
🦞 Lobster lore
During WWII lobster was one of the few foods never rationed in the US, which quietly rebuilt its reputation as an affordable treat.
