You are eating the muscle tissue of a lobster, made from the amino acids in the proteins it consumed. A lobster does not typically eat the feces of other animals. It eats other animals, period. Dead or alive. It is both a scavenger and a predator.

You do the math: if a = b and b = c then a = c...so yes, you are eating recycled animal feces. Are you sure you want to eat lobster?

You're eating a lobster. I imagine all the left over nutrients to into the lobster, thus keeping it alive, and low and behold, lobsters "poo" the rest of the useless feces out. So no, you aren't eating what would be the logical answer. (thank god).

You're eating lobster muscles, which were nourished by whatever nutrients the lobster was able to absorb from its diet.
If this really bothers you, then I can only guess that you don't eat vegetables either, since those are fertilized with poop, and that means the vegetables absorb nutrients from the poop just like the lobster did.
Come to think of it, I don't expect you eat much of anything. After all, if poop fertilizes the grass, and the cows eat the grass, and you eat beef, you're eating thirdhand poop.
Poop is everything, and everything is poop. Get used to it.

guess what! nearly all nourishment you consume existed in the form of poo at some point! look at the Nitrogen Cycle.. plants eat poo, animals eat plants, people eat animals, so people are eating poo.. that's really not a good way to look at it though since the minerals from the poo are being used to nourish the muscles of the lobster..

No matter WHAT you eat, it probably was nourished somehow by the waste material or decomposition of some living thing. That's life.
