First and foremost I'm a retired Executive Chef ( Canadian Recipes of the Great White North) and have cooked my share of fresh lobster. I love the great dishes you can make with fresh lobster - like lobster bisque or lobster creole ( just to name a very few). Not sure if this is cruelity to crusteceans. We use to quickly end the lobster life by a quick strike of a very sharp knife before we would stick it into the boiling hot water. This way the lobster was already dead before it hit the boiling water - we felt this was a more humane way to kill a lobster. I have mixed feeling because I'm against people torturing animals - like my long time companion and dog friend was (hit and run on purpose) by the cruelity of some immigrant from an eastern country. The reality of it all is that you have to eat protien of some sort and no matter how you mask it - we are carnivores. It up to you if you want to eat a ton of beans or have protien rich food items either from the sea or a nice thick steak from the farm. If you think this is cruelity, then maybe you should have a look at what the Japanese are doing when they kill dolphins and all their young ( It's a complete slaughter within a pool of blood with the young crying and franticially trying to get out, but knowing they soon will die along with their parents). We must eat and I think it is important to respect the animal species and utilize every part of that animal. Cruelity is not only within man, but three months ago I saw how killer whales tired out a mother whale in order to kill its baby along side of the mother whale. As soon as the mother whale could no longer protect its baby, the killer whales swiftly killed the baby... and this is the important part....they did not even eat the calf...it slowly sank to the bottom of the ocean. So - what were the Killer Whales doing ...it was a game to them....just a game. P.S. I love going to Vegas and Freemont Street - We go every year from Canada and enjoy every minute we are there. We have stayed at the Mirage, T.I. (Treasure Island), Beligio, CeasarsPalace and going back to CeasarPalace. I really enjoyed #Margaritaville http://www.margaritavillelasvegas.com/ andhttp://www.kahunaville.com/ - great place for casual dining I kind of have mixed feelings about the lobster game.
