There's an implied killing of a lobster but nothing emotionally difficult.

A mother is emotionally abusive to her adult daughter on the phone throughout the film, bringing her down and not really believing that she is going to succeed in anything.

Lobsters are tossed in boiling water. I couldn't see them moving in the film during this scene.

The entire scene about lobsters is abusive in my opinion. Julie is distressed about having to kill the lobsters, which way is best is discussed, an ultimately plunging live lobsters into boiling water is shown and made light of. Animal lovers and sensitive people may have a hard time with this.

You see animals like pigs hanging over a a table in a food market. It's not filmed grotesquely, and the props don't look especially realistic.

There is a skit of Julia child where she is cutting a chicken on tv and cuts off her finger and blood is shown squirting out. It lasts about 1 minute. I would say skip the scene when they’re watching tv and the Julia skit comes on.

The main character works at a call center dealing with the building of the 9/11 memorial. In the first twenty minutes of the movie we see her taking phone calls from family members who have been affected by 9/11.

Some cooking goes wrong and Julie has ‘meltdowns’ about middleway through the film. Could be considered panic attacks

No, but there are a lot of eating scenes. The main themes of this film are food and cooking. Someone mentions being worried about getting fat around 52:00.
