Facebook memes need to go away.
Check out who the majority purchaser of that stuff is: DoD.
Lobster is one of the few treats soldiers get when deployed (about once every other week). I would guess that’s where the majority of that number is coming from.

Always heard about them but never actually saw them or got one myself... Maybe I was just unlucky but odds are I would have seen one if they were as common as you suggest...

We used to be served this every friday (i think) in kandahar. I thought it was weird and didnt really want lobster when the place stunk like a literal cesspool.

You guessed wrong.
It comes from baseline budgeting.

Why is this some kind of defense of this?
Why should I be happy welfare queens with free college and retirement and medical care also get free lobster? Your happy arse signed up to be sent all over the world. You weren't drafted.

Where the heck did you deploy? 
Our "treat" was chicken cordon bleu, a.k.a freedom biscuits.
We got fish every once in a while but it took one sniff to know not to touch it.
