Stop cooking crabs alive.
>>21620304Who are you talking to? I've literally never done that
>>21620304people got psyoped into thinking torturing animals is no big deal
>>21620304What a silly creatureWhy is it doing that
>>21620304What's the most humane way to kill a crab?
>>21620338Snib the snab
>>21620338Electric stunning tank
>>21620338it’s well documented. you push the point of your knife into their brain and then like split their head open. instant death
>>21620304I caught a couple of rock crabs on the beach and boiled them alive for twenty minutes. They were delicious. Arthropods are mindless so who cares?
>>21620357they feel pain. and if that’s too much of a stretch for you, they at least demonstrate a preference for not being boiled alive.
>>21620353Where is their brain? It's probably a tiny target. I'm not a crab anatomistI stabbed a fish in the brain once, split its damn head in two, and it was still flopping and going nuts. I kill fish by clubbing them now, caving their skull in is quicker and more reliable.
>>21620369sorry I was thinking of lobsterhttps://youtu.be/A4XS11RXyHM?si=OZYsQrYYA7UsFk6Hhere’s a minute long demonstration on how to kill a crab before cooking. you stab the “nerve center”
>>21620357>Arthropods are mindless so who cares?some people might say that about you too. would you like to be boiled alive?
>>21620390Mammals are confirmed to feel severe pain and feel deep emotions. I'm still a mammal even if I happen to be a low quality one.
>>21620321It's feeling crabby.
>>21620378>first you stab it in the dick>then you stab it in the headthis is just cruel
>>21620304they like it in the water though? just look at that guy, he's having a good time. insofar as crabs can have good times (dubious)hell, if you boiled me alive it would probably be chill, at least at the start as the water heats up, before my skin peeled off and all. like a hot tub. one of the better ways to go out I'm sure. you'd probably be dead or unconscious before it really got ugly or you felt anything severe.
>NOOOOOOO YOU simplY HAVE TO BOIL THEM they’ll be RUINED if you kill them quickly 10 seconds before putting them in the pot THEY HAVE TO BE BOILED ALIVE THE MEAT WILL ROT WITHIN ONE MINUTE!!!!!!
>>21620418>start me off in cold water, slowly bring it to the boilbased and parboiled-pilled
>>21620418Jump in the grand prismatic spring and let us know the euphoria
>>21620338Crab gun. Put er down like Old Yeller
>>21620429buncha germs in there, I'd probably catch something. no fun in that.
>>21620425>NOOOOOOOOO YOU have to kill them first! You cant be lazy and just throw them into the pot because you dont care!!! THINK!!! OF THE HECKING CRABS' FEELINGS!!!
>>21620304He cute
>>21620338This is the only reliable method to painlessly kill a crab. It's like being sucked through a small hole on a space ship, like in Alien Resurrection.
>>21620338I give my crustaceans the opportunity to exercise their free will and self determination. I don't boil them, they boil themselves because they choose to.It's the only moral way.
>>21620449Why do they go to the heat and not freedom? Do they like the warmth or does the smell of food make them hungry?
>>21620338Talk about stress eating
>>21620449>>21620455This says a lot about society
>>21620455Looks like it's random. Half of them are going the other way.
>>21620464Don't say it's random. You're dehumanizing the crabs and robbing them of their agency when you do that. Not cool.
>>21620449Top fucking kek
>>21620338scissors.
>>21620304In the US, crab is usually sold precooked (they cook them on those big ships where the Deadliest Catch guys get them weighed. Lobster, on the other hand, is sold alive most of the time.
>>21620449This is diabolical>>21620463Yes because we are mindless crustaceans>>21620369You probably left a portion of the brain in-tact, and the part left connected to the muscles started seizing. I wouldn't exactly call this state "conscious"
>>21620529>This is diabolicalWhy? It gave them a chance.
>>21620304>Stop cooking crabs alive.Actually, just cook them fast. The jury is still indeed out on pain and learning. There's no hormonal response to pain.Just know the boiling alive practice is also based on science. The point of cooking crustaceans alive is that they are to be looked upon very suspiciously if NOT alive when you buy them. They have the most notorious and fastest form of food poisoning when already dead.
Arthropods don't have brains. Their nervous systems are decentralized. They don't think like vertebrates do.
The meat gets all weird and soggy if you pierce the shell in any way
>>21620541>They don't think like vertebrates do.is that grounds for not showing them compassion?
>>21620304Make me
>>21620338> What's the most humane way to kill a crab?This
>>21620477They freely choose to pick randomly
>>21620321My guess would be to flee.Crabby is normally under water, so the jet gives him propulsion backwards to support fleeing backwards.
>>21620593So that crab is actually frikkin terrified right now and is desperately trying to escape, but cannot because his tormentor has cruelly put him in a shallow bowl?

>>21620596Why wouldn't he?Some"thing" is disturbing, ie attacking, him and even trying to lift him up. That can only be a predator.
>>21620304Yuck, this crab really activates my trypophobia.
>>21620363And I demonstrate a preference for you to never post here again, but we both know you will do it anyway. So clearly preferences mean fuck all.
>>21620562Its the same exact grounds shitlibs give for plants and funghi
>>21620449Some hipster ass restaurant about to put this on the menu as "ethically sourced crawdad stew"
>>21620449>I want to play a game
>>21620455By the time they're close enough to feel the heat from the boiling water, they're already on the slide and it's too late. You can see the one at 0:06 regret his choice and try to stop his descent into the pot, but he's not able to get enough traction to save himself.
>>21620425I'm not stabbing through 50lbs of crawfish.
>>21620449
>>21620304t. crab
>>21620338tell them that they are loved, dearly on their crab deathbedthen triple-tap the morphine valve and tell the crab-nurse DNR<3 <3 see you in the stars, crab <3 <3
>>21620626you “wahhhh fuck off kill yourself” posters are so boring
>>21620446when it's got ya...it's got ya!
>>21620304I don't a-cook-a them a-live, I cook-a them a-dead!
I dunno why y'all eat ocean insects anyway... Gross ass shit. Boil cockroaches and eat those, cowards.
>>21620449KEK
>>21621546Why don't you eat rats and snakes then? must be the same as cows and pigs right?Btw insects are further apart from crustaceans than you are from a fish
>>21620449>file nameFucking kek
>>21621561>inb4 kid_mouthfucks_a-fish.gif
>>21620308It's no big deal>>21620321It's stupid
>>21620627Hitler was a great lover and protector of animals.
stop doing thiz abhorrent stuff and go vegan
>>21620304No. >>21620353Crabs, like insects, don't really have a brain so to speak. They have a handful of ganglion spread throughout the body. If humanely killing them is really a concern for you, put them in a cooler full of ice, or your freezer, for 15 minutes to half an hour. Then using shears, snip off their face behind the eye stalks. The process you describe is for lobsters. I'll just keep dropping mine into the boiling Old Bay, water, and beer. Do lions care how the gazelle feels while it rips out its living guts? >>21620363Who cares?
>>21621885>stop doing abhorrent stuff>go veganI'm getting mixed messages here
I just took a mean shit
>>21621924Ackschualley, the most painless method is to fry their "brains" with a stungun.There is an initiative to provide crab and shrimp farms with these things since it would make their deaths an awful lot less painful.Not that I personally care what kills the crab, just saying
>>21621924Have some compassion. Sea creatures have parents and feelings and dreams just like us. They're our brothers under the sea.
>>21621935That might well be. I didn't say mine was the most painless way, only that it is humane. For some reason faggots seem to care about crabs' feelings. Fucked if I know why. >>21621943
for me it's delishus snibedi snabber :DDD
>>21620446Reminds me of that copypasta about the rat that got electrocuted while chewing through a cable; while doing nothing out of the ordinary, it was killed by forces far beyond what it would ever naturally encounter, due to reasons it could never possibly understand
>>21621943I've seen snuff videos that didn't make me feel this repulsed
>>21620446you can't see or hear a delta p event
>>21622028the image, which I would post if I could FUCKING find it
>>21620304We should cook (you) alive.
>>21620449Hahahahahaha
>>21622066sounds hot
>>21621561Snakes are good eatin
>>21621665Based and truth
>>21622079-_-
>>21622035delta P events are among the deadliest of kitchen events.
>>21620338>>21621943-bugs (asians)-eating disgusting shit-inflicting as much pain as possible on it before it enters their mawsname a more iconic trio
>>21622508>Ayo, let's put the closed put the closed can on heat and build so much pressure that it already starts bulging>WHat the? I didn't knew there was pressure!>SHIIIEEE
>>21622508turnin' niggas WHITE
>>21622508it is definitely funny but damn, those are serious burns.
>>21622566It's deadly even for whites.
>>21622596you're not supposed to close it fully when boiling damn noob
>>21622028
>>21622605You say that like its obvious. That delta-P victim had been living as an ubermensch white woman for 75 years without coming across that bit of consequential information. The average person has zero chance.
>>21620449top kek there's some depressingly funny about animals being put through SAW traps like this
>>21620449Now this is true neutral and I love it
>>21620338Honestly? Clove oil. Sends most aquatic life into an instant coma.
>>21620338>fuck it, we ball
>>21621943What the fuck is that thing?
>>21620449Lol
>>21620338>HE KEEPS RESTORING HIS HP!!
>>21623086sea cucumber with a pearlfish inside
>>21620449Based beyond human comprehension
>>21623086Natures fleshlight with built in tickler.
>>21622615What a babeAnd she's autistic to boot!
>>21622969>Clove oilShould it be put into water they're submerged in so they breathe it in? Does it affect the taste of the fish/ shellfish much?
>>21622596>old woman gets blasted back, probably breaking her hip>@LOL_WIZARD01
>>21620338At my work we electrocute them in a tank of water for 30 seconds, but it's really done to keep their claws attached when then steam for 20 minutes
>>21620304He cute, I wouldn't eat him
>>21623086dinner
>>21623086The fishies home :) They have to breed living homes because they don't have hands or electricity to build them
>>21620463What does it say about society? They're crayfish. You mean their society?
>>21623319Sure she is. She wants to love you too.
>>21620449This is worse than just killing them but somehow I can't stop laughing at it, it's such a preposterous claim that this is merciful for being in the hands of a stupid thing with no concept of anything but eat food and copulate when biological clock says LETS GO let alone a devious death trap skewed towards the pots side.Like even for crustaceans they are pretty dumb, a mantis shrimp would find out were you live and puncture your arteries in your sleep for putting it in this situation, if we exaggerate a bit
>>21622032same wtf
>>21623345When I've done fish surgery ive added small amounts to the water and it sedates them. It's got a chemical in it that when aquatics animals breathe or absorb it acts as a sedative and paralytic. After a high enough dose (which is only a little bit) they will die. Even with littler doses they sometimes will forget to breathe even if not paralyzed, and die without manual help.The amount of clove oil is small enough that there is no noticable lingering taste. I think Old Bay actually has clove in it so maybe I've never noticed. Because they are unconscious and/or dead the meat isn't stressed before cooking either. If they're are still alive they won't feel a thing.If it were my fate to be dropped in a boiling pot, I wish I could be blackout unconscious for it so I give them the same courtesy.
>>21621943Im guessing that's a sea cucumber and the long guy is one of those fish that treats his butthole like a apartment?
>>21620338ice pick to the nerve clusters in the abdomen and the mouthparts
>>21622508>chicken noodle soup cures blacknesswhat
>>21623839
>>21620449>The problem officer?
>>21623830nah that's a crab
>>21622615This is the average female office experience. The 2-3 men per team will do the actual work. The rest is meetings, shuffling paper around in a circle and gossiping. Or like the meme says adult daycare.
>>21624464All true except the part where you pretend like it's men vs women. It's usually one person (man or woman) who does all the work, and 4-5 other people shuffling paper and doing nothing.
>>21620353This kills the crab
>>21623086Sea cucumbers puke their guts out when attacked hoping predators will eat the organs instead of them.
>>21620338what's the most crabe way to kill a human
>>21625397Snibbbeby Snabbb :DDDDD
>>21625397
>>21622615I bet she makes a ton of money to do absolutely nothing of value all day. Kinda wish I had gone to college so I could get a job like that.
>>21620449>next day, those who made it to the pound are removed and placed back in the bucket>cycle repeats again.
>>21620304Why?
>>21622508>this guy can vote.
>>21620363>they feel painNo they don't. Stop parroting this nonsense. You can easily prove it by getting a crab and cutting one of its claws off while it's alive. It doesn't spaz out or react in any way that can be associated with being in pain.
>>21620425>>21620304>>21620308>>21620338freeze them so they sleep before you boil them
>>21625859It can still be suffering without showing it in a way you can understand
>>21626195>Just because it doesn't show signs of suffering doesn't mean it isn't sufferingYeah okay dude. And it doesn't show signs of having a religion either so I guess they're all believers of god. Look man if you want to feel bad for the crab than you go right ahead, more for me.
