Florida is one of the citrus capitals of the world. The coconut is the seed and edible fruit. Spiny Lobster Commonly called rock lobsters, the Florida spiny lobsters are easily distinguished from the Maine lobster and Papaya/Paw Paw is what makes me think of Florida foods.
Spiny lobster are different then rock lobster. Spiny’s are what we dive for in the keys, rock lobster are usually caught by the shrimpers in their nets, in deep water. They do look like a rock verses our pretty spiny lobsters. Theres not much of a market for them, but they sell good if you can get them when lob season is closed.
fresh-caught fish, key lime pie, and cuban sandwiches.
Blackened Grouper
Fresh Florida Seafood!
Smoked mullet. I don’t know of another state where you can find smoked mullet. The rest of the South thinks it is a bait fish.
