Those videos are sick!
Amazing what some cultures find acceptable. If you're ever in Hong Kong or China... do not order "Field Chicken" I went to a hot pot place with some pals in Hong Kong & they ordered field chicken & when it came it was a place of freshly chopped & skinned frogs with the muscles still twitching!!! Some things are just not right!!! .

It's all about different cultures. I passed on some of the nasty stuff when I was in Japan, I just could not do it, I had been warned though...My dad went to Japan a number of times when I was a kid and he came back with horror stories about food.
Allthough not all will agree, IMO the only difference is in North America that we electrocute our "food" before we skin it and chop it up.

I knew my comment was going to fire somebody up! That was just knee-jerk reaction from watching those videos. It is the method that bothers me - if something only tastes good because you torture it maybe you should just leave it alone. Killing food humanely is one thing - leaving something swimming around without having the decency to put it out of its misery is something else entirely.

And you are absolutely correct, Der Iron Chef - I of course meant the people who are able to do this, make a living at it and sleep at night besides. I was not referring to an entire race of people - though it might be hard to round up only the bad ones and bomb them. I don't care where they are from - if you make your living from the suffering of other creatures you do not deserve to be on the planet.

Good thing food comes from the big box down the street all wrapped up in nice cello packages. Must be nice not to have to get your hands dirty. If all us uncultured farmers quit growing food for you city folk, what would you guys do? The balcony on the box you live in isn't big enough for you to sustain yourself. Hmm, betcha you'd all migrate out of your nice concrete city and start destroying the beautiful countryside.
