i just about cried today at school.
not even kidding.
today chef john killed a lobster.
one minute i was holding the lobster-- the next he stuck a knife right through him and he was dead. i have no problem butchering a chicken but killing a LIVE LOBSTER really did something to me. i was the only person who literally screamed when he was killed.
i have never felt this way before. i have no problem with other meats. but this really got to me.
anyways, apparently just cutting up the lobster is the most humane way of killing him.
it just mostly creeped me out when he was already but into 3 pieces, we were holding his brains, AND he legs were still moving.
but the worst part? eating the lobster. i just felt really weird about it.
i just hope i will not have to kill one myself anytime soon :(
This sounds life changing. I dont like that you had to witness this and how was it decided that cutting a lobster is the most humane way of death?
