Oh, that's going to go down a storm in Massachusetts. The only way I can keep my son quiet in Shaws is to threaten that I'll throw him in the lobster tank if he doesn't behave. First they want to ban bear skins, now this! |

I usually give my lobster a nice butter massage after cooking it -- what could be more compassionate? |

I Owe It All To John D'Oh
|
Before I cook a lobster, I let it sit for a while in cheap beer. Legend has it that the lobster gets drunk, and doesn't tense up when it hits the hot water. So the meat's more tender. By the way, maybe George or Bach or someone else can tell us ... if lethal injection is supposedly painful, why not simply put the guy out before using the lethal injection? Doesn't that solve the problem? |

When you add crawfish to the pot, you can hear them "scream". Doesn't change the taste one bit.... |

Cheap beer is inhumane, Quirt -- you're making PETA's case for them. :lol: |

When I cook a lobster, I sit for a while with a couple of cheap beers. It makes me feel less guilty. (Disclaimer - I can't actually afford to eat lobster) |

I think the "scream" is actually expanding heated air hissing through the joints in their shells. I haven't had fresh crawfish in ages...

Finally

Lethal injection, properly performed, is a general anesthetic - grossly overdosed, and without caring for the consequences thereof: cessation of respiration (I do that every day), stopping the heart (I only do that about 2 per week), and unconciousness (every day as well). Now, getting an IV into a lobster...there's a trick... |

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

I have been told that chefs insert a knife blade between the back shell and the tail shell to sever the spinal cord and kill the beast painlessly. .. no nerves, no pain. So that's what I do. This story was all over NPR and other stations on the way back from Chicago today. Even Paul Harvey was laughing about it. |

The screaming noise the lobster makes can't be any worse than the high pitched shriek I hear about 3 times a week when the neighbour's cat gets a rabbit. All joking aside, it's a horrible noise, and it goes on for ages. Cats don't listen to anyone, of course, so they're unlikely to be influenced by PETA. |

That is a terrible noise. Our dog attacked one of our rabbits when he got out of his cage, and she tore his eye out. The sound. I will NEVER forget Raoul's (we tend to have weird pet names) shrieking. He did survive, and lived for another 2 or 3 years, he just had one eye is all. I have honestly never heard a noise as bad as that. As terrifying and emotional and pain-filled, yes, but not as hard on the ears. |

Jolly The only commercial crawfish I have ever found were small ones about the size of your thumb. Here in the mid West we have big ones, about 6" to 7", and damn they are good when camping out. lb |

Larry, If you clean all the crap out of them there is nothing left, not worth the effort to clean them. Hell, I don't think a possum would even eat them. lb |

I'd have to switch browsers to see that. Don't have the necessary plug-in in this one. apple, do you do crawfish boils? Knowing you, the answer is likely yes. |

no.. but we used to catch them. One day we came home with 1000 or so, so we had to eat them (i don't really care for them because they are messy). that is a movie of a woman freaking out, trying to cook a live lobster.. |
