Chinese Fish - Don't Watch If You're Squeamish

[Petit Papillon]

Cooking crabs alive to eat when they're dead is one thing.

Cooking a fish and eating it while it's still attempting to breathe takes it to a whole other level.

Sure.I would do that.
But it looks like Asian stuff. I saw a vid on you tube,about Asians(I really don't remember which country exactly it was) were eating calamars or that stuff while they were alive.They needed to chew them good or they could choke. It is somekind of proof that You're brave or something... Maybe tomorrow I find this video... Now I go to lulu. Gnite!

That's pretty sick.

I mean they're eating it while it's watching...

I didn't think it would gross me out, but it did.

We should nuke china.

hahaha.. you think that this is bad, then you've never had lobster sushi. basically you break off the lobster's tail and serve the tail with the head and everything.

the lobster stares as you while you eat it's flesh... i've never tried it, but they used to serve it at the old restaurant that i worked at.

The difference between someone else killing a cow for us before we eat it and us eating the flesh straight off the cow while it's still alive is:

1. The cow is already dead when we eat it and doesn't have to suffer a much more excruciatingly painful death than it would have otherwise.
2. It transforms the person doing this into a sadistic torturer.

if you feel so bad for the cow then why don't you turn into a vegetarian. i love watching gory films like saw and hostel... makes me want to eat a freshly ground rare hamburger.

it's just like eating raw unpeeled potatoes, they also stare at you when you eat them.

A vegetable doesn't have a brain and pain receptors

Personally I'm divided on the issue, it's not as if its a crazy unnatural human idea or anything, and bringing to light what happens behind the scenes doesn't change it much.

Or else we could just get pissy because of popular candy using red lice for its coloration, how many snails have taken a crap on our veggies e.t.c.

anything and everything is consumable... raw... just ask that guy from the travel channel. umm... andrew zimmerman??

Yep, now we kill people to take their fat and skin to use for cosmetics.

That octopus bothered me. They are supposed to be quite intelligent. I want to see them do it to a blue ringed octopus...

Lobster is really just a bug. Still, eating stuff live is kind of like being Hannibal Lecter lite, don't you think.

Mmmm, yummy.

Come on you silly scientist. Lobster is not a 'bug', whatever the hell that is. It's an arthropod!

[IndiReloaded]

It has an exoskeleton. That makes it a bug. Look at these photos of arthropods and tell me they aren't bugs:

It is the fact that they do this for fun. It doesn't bring any nutrition value or freshness at all. They just do it to get a kick out of it. Pathetic really.
