BOSTON -- Call it cryonics for crustaceans. A Connecticut company says its frozen lobsters sometimes come back to life when thawed. Trufresh began freezing lobsters with a technique it used for years on salmon after an offhand suggestion by some workers. It found that some lobsters revived after their subzero sojourns.
It is better to get a lobster that is still alive. Dying lobsters tend to eat away at theirself as they die so when you cook a already dead lobster theirs not as much meat inside. Also depending on how long the lobster has been dead it could make you sick too.
