Then take it out of the freezer and jab a knife into the back of the neck where the head meets the first link. Go hard an deep, this kills it dead, and the poor thing isn't aware of it because its already in a coma. This is the preferred method in the UK and is recommended by Gordon Ramsey. |
This is in no way a more humane way to kill a lobster. IMHO
Lobsters feel pain just like us. So my shoving them into freezing temperatures, they feel it. Just like us. Do the people with hypothermia look happy to you? No. They look distraut and terrible. That how the lobsters are feeling.
I hope you don't take offense.
