If you're driving along the New England coast during summer, it's hard to go more than a few miles without stopping for lobster. 

Sure, you can wear the bib and crack some claws.

But that's messy. It takes work.

Lobster rolls, on the other hand... those can be swiftly placed into your possession and then consumed like any other sandwich. Except better, because it's a lobster sandwich. 

If you're in New England right now, hey, good for you. Try not to deplete the oceans. For everyone else, here are seven of the best lobster roll kits that you can order online and have shipped to your location—usually overnight. Because, once you've decided to order a lobster roll online, things have clearly gotten serious.
