How can people say romance is dead when there's such a thing as an engagement lobster roll? In Boston, one restaurant is offering its patrons a chance to profess their love to their special someone with an extremely expensive lobster roll. Per , Pauli's North End regularly serves a lobster roll called "The USS Lobstitution," a massive sandwich the size of four lobster rolls. The USS Lobstitution contains 28 ounces of lobster meat and is normally priced at $99.
99. However, to celebrate National Lobster Day on September 25 (and love in all its glory), the restaurant is adding "a certified 1-5/8 carat, round-cut diamond halo engagement ring" garnish to the massive roll. Of course, that $99.
99 price tag goes up significantly if you plan to propose using The USS Lobstitution. Diners looking to pop the question using this ring-adorned roll will have to pay $10,000 and contact the restaurant owner to reserve their Lobstitution before September 25. While this may be an extremely New England-y way of proposing marriage, it is not even close to the only food-centric path to nuptials.
Other food-based showings of love Love and food go together like, well, other popular food pairings. This goes beyond a simple (which you may want to avoid as it does present a major choking risk). Some people are happy to make food the centerpiece of their special occasion.
Take for example the unique nuptials shared by people who . Participants in this Taco Bell Vegas wedding can walk down the aisle with a bouquet of hot sauce packets, get a free 12-pack of tacos, and cut into a Cinnabon wedding cake. If the engaged couples of 2020 and throughout the pandemic lockdowns taught us anything, it's that can be as beautiful as a banquet hall.
In Oklahoma, a Dunkin' manager married her best customer in the drive-thru where they first met. The proposal also took place in the same Dunkin' parking lot just a few months before the wedding itself. Old sayings don't always lie; it seems the key to anyone's heart could be through their stomach.
Tacos, cakes, or lobster rolls — it's all about the love. Recommended.
