How bad is lobster tomalley for you (the green stuff inside a lobster)?

Question

One of my favorite parts of lobster is the tomalley. Lately there have been reports of how it can contain PCB's, and other toxins, but none of the reports I've see say how much you can consume before it's a problem. Is eating the tomalley like eating a tuna sandwich? Or should I just stop eating it altogether?

Answer 1

go on ahead and eat the lobster tamale, it probably contains no more toxins than any other part of the lobster we eat.

Answer 2

dude that is an aphrodisiac i once ate 4 green m&m's with the tomalley and me and the misses had the time our lives

Answer 3

Oh I think you have nothing to worry about. Continue to eat it, that is a delicassan.
