Just curious, is there a specific "cutback" you're referring to? 

Only the possibility of the Steakhouse lobster no longer being Maine lobster.  I admitted that I don't remember for certain, but I think I remember the word "Maine" being on the Steakhouse Menu lobster listing, a few years ago.  And now, at least for the Steakhouse lobster on the upcharge portion of the MDR menu, there is no mention of it being Maine lobster.  I doubt they've switched it to a warm water lobster.  But maybe it is possible that they are using a cold water lobster (such as Canadian lobster) that is cheaper than Maine lobster.  

 

I am not trying to start a rumour of this possible cutback actually happening, I was just trying to avoid stating something ("The Steakhouse lobster is Maine Lobster") as fact when it might not be anymore, based on the recent menu wording that I have seen and that from the past that I seem to remember.

 

ETA: Just did a tiny research: the Steakhouse menu on Carnival's website still says "Maine lobster".  So at least I was remembering that correctly.

ET(Also)A:

 

The "new" menus posted by bambam in another thread has no mention of the word "Maine" for the Steakhouse lobster in the MDR:

Hence, my CYA statement that it may no longer be the case due to cutbacks.
