You are so right. Big Grin

The teeth of a lobster are in its stomach. The stomach is located a very short distance from the mouth, and the food is actually chewed in the stomach between three grinding surfaces that look like molar surfaces, called the "gastric mill". - NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service

Crayfish's teeth, all three of them, reside not in the mouth but within the stomach, where they rip and grind food as efficiently as any set of molars. - Smithsonian National Zoo
