Who was in the wrong here?

Maine lobster and Canadian lobster are technically the same species right?

maine has slightly warmer waters which leads to a slightly sweeter flavour and allows them to grow a bit bigger too
not a huge difference but it affects the quality to some degree

But you're charging money for maine lobster, while serving canadian lobsters.

So you're telling me the lobsters respect american state borders, and grow the tastiest just in those particular territorial waters?

You're telling me the slight sweetness, which probably has never been objectively measured, is so drastically different in Maine's waters and only Maine's waters, that it is okay to charge triple the price of a lobster caught a few miles away?

Yes, environmental differences matter to how meat tastes you stupid fuck. If I raise twin pigs but feed them differently, they'll taste different. This isn't rocket science.

Yes, a lobster caught in Maine is triple the tastiness of a lobster 10 metres away across the border in New Hampshire. Bravo.

the issue in that episode was that he was lying to customers saying that it was Maine lobster when really it was Canadian lobster, not that one is superior to the other.

this. sure it's just a meme for the most part, like French wines for instance, but intentionally mislabeling a product so you can sell it for a higher price is still a very Jewish and therefore wrong thing to do

The owner is. You legally can't call a Canadian Lobster a Maine Lobster. Species is irrelevant, you are lying about the origin, which is illegal.
