Rival
Pincered by a rival: US lobsters face 8% tariff, but Canada lobsters get into Europe duty-free. A Maine lobster lands on a Beijing dinner plate in 2 days, via Canada – avoiding China’s 25% tariff on US live lobsters from 6 July. Until 1800’s, lobster was low-class food, eaten only by the poor. 2017 US live lobster exports to China $128.5m. Lobsters take 7- 8 years to grow to the common 1.25lb size
