Do you think a lobster suffers when its boiled alive?

Well! they sure ain't havin' a party!

Lobsters don't hane the kind of nervous system you would need to feel pain, so I don't worry about it too much. theyre so tasty! And I hear they die or go unconcious immediately, so even if they could suffer they arent suffering.

To me that should be stopped it is classed in my eyes as cruelty to Animals I don't care what anyone says at the end of the Day how would they like to be put into boiling water alive

For sure they have to suffer, they have feelings and emotions..Listen to the way that they scream...Its blood chilling..

You are absolutely right that some animals are suffering because of us humans. Like we are killing elephants just to decorate our drawing rooms. The decoration pieces are sold so expensive and we humans purchase it. You are also right that lobsters do feel and they are trown alive in boiling water which is not good.

Many, many years ago there was a cooking show I was watching and the gentleman (I think the show was Galloping Gourmet with Graham Kerr?), was getting ready to cook a Lobster Dinner. What he mentioned was something that always stuck in my head,...if you put the Lobster in warm water and heat it slowly, the Lobster just goes to sleep, therefore, avoiding the boiling water method and much pain and suffering. I still to this day, feel better about that choice, even though I can't cook them myself or pick them out at a restaurant, lol. Hope this helps relieve you some.

In the wold an animal would not hesitate to eat you. As for lobsters...no I wouldn't eat them nor boil them alive, ouch

Everything 'living' must be able to feel pain, although not a professor in the natural world, I'm sure that a lobster could feel the pain, when my friend cooked mussels once in a microwave the noise they made was unbearable I had to leave the room, correction house! It was horrific! I know they also have to cut frogs legs off when they're still alive because they are tender when they are alive! Thankfully I hate lobster, mussels and as I have pet frogs wouldn't dream of eating them! I try not to think about pigs because I love pork too much!

I think its terrible that they suffer. I also dont like their claws pinned together when they are thrown into tanks....it seems wrong to just drop them into boiling water,,and I dont see why they cant do it differently....I would think freezing them would be better then boiling them, but I dont eat lobster either...

i think it well suffers being dropped into boiling water. at least there could be another way to kill it than scald it. i dont eat lobster anyway and would never eat it

you know I like seafood but if I know how they are cooked I won't bother eating it anymore. In my homeland, nothing is boiled alive. We buy fresh meat every morning and cook it for the day then the next day buy meat again and so on. I heard in China they do boil things alive there, but not in my homeland. here in Canada too I never heard of it. If it's true they boil animals alive, I too will be come pure vegetarian - I eat vegetables daily anyway

OUCH! I am sure that they can feel it and I also don't eat them. Putting alive Lobster in a boiling water and they die quickly oh yeah I am sure that they can feel it, I have seen this on tv once and I felt so bad for them.

Yes of course I do. They die, don't they? Then they suffer even if it's a split second, they still suffer and die from being boiled. With this day in age there has to be another way of cooking a lobster or any other animal in a humane way. I don't eat much meat for I don't like most of it and what I do eat, I don't eat much of.

living creatures have feelings!!cooking a live lobster is like torturing it.
