Not sure how the issues can be remotely conflated. I enjoy chicken and beef, but would have extreme difficulty in bringing myself to kill either animal. Hell, I wouldn't even want to watch either animal being killed. I also enjoy lobster, but do I want to see one boiled let alone drop one in? Hell no.

So you are dependent on others to kill so that you might eat? Wow. Are you a child?

As for the lobster argument, its a bug. When we start caring about the experiences of insects (something they don;t even care about in their own societies) thats when we become so reductionist with how we define consciousness that we might as well say plants feel pain and therefor should not be eaten as well.

p.s. boiling lobster alive in more sanitary. You would know this if you knew about cooking lobster, which you obviously don't, yet you form an opinion about the practice in a field you have no knowledge about.

Sad.

Stick to what you know, please or try learning before judging.

Few things:

1) Clearly like most civilized persons, I rely on others to kill things for me. The fact that you're trying to make a big deal about that is silly.

2) Lobsters aren't really "bugs," they're shellfish.

3) Boiling a live animal is painful for any animal. That's really just common sense.

4) It's not actually more sanitary, that's a housewife's myth. You're supposed to cook them shortly after killing them, but you could crack its head before tossing it in the pot to do that with less pain to the animal.
