No offense, but your comments come off as kind of edgy and from someone who sounds like the most exotic thing they've eaten is pineapple on pizza.
@pyrflie I've gone 48 hours without eating.
Can't say it ever made me want to carefully cook the body of a fish while keeping its head alive and then eat it as it watched me.
Nobody says that it won't taste differently, It's just plain cruel
I think a squid being caught and eaten alive is pretty close to what’s been happening for thousands of years, also what every other animal who eats squid does… I don’t see the issue. Significantly less cruelty than factory farming of cows and pigs imo.
"it's always been done like this" is a pretty bad excuse. Why would you not lessen the suffering of an animal if you can do it so easily?
I don’t see eating a squid that will die in a matter of seconds as significantly more suffering than if it’s already dead at the store or in a can.
