Japan- Live frog sushi

For some reason this was on my youtube side bar.

For some reason I watched it.

I never understood the live thing. There are videos on here of People eating live fish and other wriggling seafood of sorts. I never understood the fascination with it still having an active brain... I eat animals that are dead, if I was going to be eaten i'd want an unsuspecting bolt to the head, not just twitching and splayed on a plate. I do not get the thought behind culture like that.

Man, sometimes I think humans deserve to be enslaved and eaten by a superior race just for the Efed up things we do... Then again, what race will want to eat a filthy human?

S'called long-pig and if ya had the right hunger and seasonings you'd probably adjust if you had to in a pinch. Personally, I'd forage and sprout and the occasional rabbit, squirrel, possum, turtle or nutria, which are all quite tasty. oh and fish, frogs, snails, and snakes-You can eat all that and not feel guilty, as long as it's not STARING AT YOU FROM THE PLATE!! Fuuuuk!

I do sort of find the honesty of it attractive. This creature had to die for you to eat. I'm not really sure if its that much more barbaric than what happens to the meat you buy at the supermarket. I mean, we've all probably eaten some poor chicken that spent its entire existence inside a tiny cage.

Meanwhile in parts of the UK and Europe we are running DNA tests on beef to check it for horse meat. This is the extent we have become distanced from the slaughter of the animals we eat. Frankly, after watching a pig being turned from living thing to bacon it made me wonder if it was a taboo meat in so many cultures simply because it was so upsetting to slaughter them. I try and remember that pig hanging on a hook bleeding out whenever I eat meat.

Well said! this video does disgust me, and I don't think those of us in the western world eat meat that's treated *quite* this cruelly (I know there are a lot of exceptions), but from that perspective it makes sense. It's probably a good thing for folks who possess that disconnect, but for someone who already knows, it is just cruel.

As for its state, of being prior to being cut: You can persist for quite some time without guts. But does it matter? Outside of electric shock, if your nerves are still firing so regularly as to trigger reactions in your muscles, you can bet the brain is more than likely still processing pain and memory too...

In the end, I personally can't wait until that carnivorous alien race enslaves us as a new food source.
