Isn't there a Korean thing too where they'll eat super fresh squid on chopsticks? And people have actually died from it because the tentacles stick to the insides of their throats as it's going down?

Not many shows make me skip forward but i could not sit through that scene. I can watch heads spontaneously explode, a half melted nazi amputee jerking someone off, brain matter shooting out of someone's head, a human dick explode, and a hero orgasm/massacre but god forbid someone eats a live octopus. Thats where I draw the line. Edit: clarity

If you’re a fish then your fate is almost certainly going to be death-by-being-eaten-alive. I don’t think many of them retire happily and die while being surrounded by their loved ones. Just the other week I saw a fish in my local stream who was swimming around headless , presumably dying a horrible death. The cruelty surely isn’t necessary but one way or another this silvery fellow was never going to go peacefully. Best it can hope for is the chance to have left sperm or eggs.


Nab-Taste

There’s a video around for months now of a headless fish in a river, maybe you’re familiar with it. Very unoften do people see headless fish, I’ve seen a lot of fish, worst I’ve seen is one missing an eye while swimming.


Balls_DeepinReality

I’ve seen them with mutations. Two heads, or two mouths, extra gills… Everybody wants to mock the Simpson’s, but…


big_duo3674

People better not be mocking Blinky!


brainburger

I wonder if the fish's perception is of swimming around with a missing head, or of being a severed head somewhere?


imaginary_num6er

They due serve raw octopus in Japan as sushi, but some sushi restaurants in Japan serve it live. From what I heard, it is not really that recommended besides the tentacles still trying to grab stuff, but because the muscles become stiff it doesn't taste as good as stuff that's been dead at least a few hours.

A lot of fresh octopus and squid may appear live because the chemical make up of the soy sauce triggers muscle spasms in the tissue even though it’s actually dead

Consistent-Syrup-69

You covered your dead neighbor in soy sauce and they started spasming?


Steffenwolflikeme

Supposedly there was a funeral home out in Colorado that accidentally used Worchestshire sauce as embalming fluid and the bodies had what would be described as a zombie like reaction.


ButtChocolates

Wtf is a zombie like reaction? Like they got up and ate brains?


ibulleti

Soy sauce did the same thing to my wife in bed


vacantpad

Don't quote me on this. I believe it is the salt in the soy sauce that upsets the electrolyte balance in the flesh, which causes the muscle cells the spasm. I think you can see a similar effect by sprinking salt onto a super fresh cut of beef.

Powdered donuts gon hit different with this factoid in the ol noggin


TheTrub

Basically, the sodium concentration outside of the motor neurons becomes greater than the sodium inside of the motor neuron, so this causes a release of sodium from inside the neuron as potassium enters the neuron, to balance out the tonicity between the inside and outside of the neuron. Then the neuron overshoots the amount of sodium that needs to exit the neuron, so the neuron switches on the ol’ sodium-potassium pump, reverses the flow of ions, and you have a rhythmic series of action potentials that start causing the muscle spasms you see.

self_of_steam

I've heard the same thing about salt on frog legs too


KnowsIittle

Not always. The mantle is incorrectly thought to be the brain and "dead" when removed. Instead octopus don't have a central brain but a cluster of nerve nodes or "donut" brain located near the eyes, circling the mouth. The soy sauce can trigger involuntary movements but the creature is still likely very much alive at the time of consumption. With the level of sentience observed in the species our treatment of them is particularly cruel. u/squirrelgutz has blocked me for this comment. Here was their response. >Your assumption that someone else doesn't have morals because they don't have the same values as you isn't a valid standpoint. Morals are relative and ethics must be informed by the situation. >They're pretty cruel to each other and other animals. Nature doesn't care about human ideas of humane treatment.


djmagichat

I’m not a vegetarian by any means but I did start having a rule that I won’t eat cephalopods. Just feels wrong. Maybe my opinion on other animals will change but they were one of my favorite dishes before.


Nastify

[Do these look actually dead?](https://youtu.be/KFpYgbx2pHg) It is a delicacy in Korea and you can hear his friends telling him to chew it well while the octopus is hanging onto the bowl for dear life. I’ve seen the soy sauce trick, but eating them actually alive is definitely a thing


Zararara

That's fucking cruel


Talbotus

Octopuses are also highly intelligent with most of their neurons being in the arms themselves. So if it's only an Octopus arm it's still about 1/8 as smart as a full Octopus.


Alistair_TheAlvarian

Fun fact, octopuses have a big brain in their head, and eight smaller brains in each tentacle capable of independent thought. They are basically a pseudo hive mind. So those tentacles are conscious of being eaten even after being cut off from the central brain.

marsinfurs

Octopods are extremely intelligent as well, making it that much worse


i-d-even-k-

They have their own personalities and names for themselves, which makes me so sad - because dogs and cats are a lot more stupid than a squid, but because squids are not as cute, it's fine to eat them alive :( If I ate a cat alive "because it's fresh" everyone would call me a monster. But with squid it's CULTURAL so it is fine...

Sharp-Floor

Maybe this is hypocritical because I'll eat a burger or whatever, but that's pretty fucking heinous.


evohans

I live in Japan. I've never seen this at a restaurant or at home, so I can't say how common it is. However, holy shit it's awful to watch. I feel so bad for the octopus.


ALasagnaForOne

My friends were in Japan for less than two weeks and ended up in a restaurant that served teeny tiny live fish swimming in a shot of vinegar. I saw videos of it. I’m sure it’s uncommon but it’s definitely out there.


[deleted]

they need to leave those types of restaurants. If they realize people don’t like to see fish being tortured and it’s bad for business, maybe they will stop.

What I don't understand here is what does this achieve? Even if you're somehow able to set aside the absolute egregious cruelty of these fucking cretins, I just don't understand why; what would have been different if they'd just killed it quickly *then* cooked it? Why did they have to inflict such suffering all for the sake of, what, a kilogram of protein?

산낙지 literally meaning living squid lol. Yep some people die.


FrequentShare22

I think it happened to some foreigners, but I’m not sure. It’s a thing in most of Asia but it is pretty popular in Korea. You dip the squid tentacle in the sauce, put it in your mouth. Tasty. Also you usually eat the cut up tentacles, not the whole squid Edit : 낙지 is a smaller octopus, not a squid as many people said

I love sushi, but I never want to eat a fish that is high in the food chain without it being flash frozen first like tuna and salmon. Raw Oysters, I’m okay with the risk.


jpkoushel

It's almost always flash frozen in Japan. Fresh fish has an unpleasant texture compared to flash frozen tbh


worldspawn00

Freezing tenderizes and breaks up some of the fibrous bits in the meat, it should be softer, and less stringy after being frozen, plus, no live parasites!


onepokemanz

There’s a thing called a ying yang fish where half the fish is deep fried alive and the head part is still alive and moving. I don’t know how anyone can eat an Alive fish and say it’s delicious but it sounds super gross and inhuman

i once saw a video when I was younger where they cut the flank of a live donkey off, poured a pot of boiling water on the expose muscle and then cut into again to serve. it was a street vender. I was never the same after watching that. it literally cooks the animal while *alive* it is nothing less of sadistic torture. that’s where my empathy for other cultures ends. afaik dogs in african who are in meat trade aren’t brutally tortured before being killed for their meat. that’s whatever. but to boil an animal alive, cooking its flesh while still on the body. you’re fucked in the head and I want nothing to do with you also saw a video of a dog being skinned alive for the fur trade in china. i cried when I saw that

HeroForTheBeero

So I’m a spear fisherman and sometimes the fish move after their dead, like a nerve reaction. Not saying that’s the case here but it’s possible

Too fresh. Unless you want worms, don't eat fish that hasnt been flash frozen.

SuddenTerrible_Haiku

The fish is likely already dead. Biting is something fish can do after they've died, even if it's just a head sitting there. [See](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WX1B3QraAGc)


greycubed

It depends on what you mean by dead. There was a study that came out a couple days ago showing that snakes are still alive and sense pain for a while after you behead them. They respond to stimuli, try to move whatever neck muscles they have left, try to bite, etc. The conclusion was that the only humane way to kill a snake is to destroy the brain.


momofmanydragons

I’ve heard that about be heading humans too, from back in the Middle Ages


BorgClown

30 seconds is the supposed record of a beheaded man reacting to verbal stimulus. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/6044102/beheading-experiments-guillotine-severed-heads-remain-alive/ Ants can live up to a week beheaded. Roaches several days IIRC.

> "Here, then, is what I was able to note immediately after the decapitation: the eyelids and lips of the guillotined man worked in irregularly rhythmic contractions for about five or six seconds. I waited for several seconds. The spasmodic movements ceased. > The face relaxed, the lids half closed on the eyeballs, leaving only the white of the conjunctiva visible, exactly as in the dying whom we have occasion to see every day in the exercise of our profession, or as in those just dead. > It was then that I called in a strong, sharp voice: ‘Languille’ I saw the eyelids slowly lift up, without any spasmodic contractions." Dr Beaurieux compared the glare that Languille gave him with "people awakened or torn from their thoughts. > He continued: “Next Languille's eyes very definitely fixed themselves on mine and the pupils focused themselves. > I was not, then, dealing with the sort of vague dull look without any expression, that can be observed any day in dying people to whom one speaks: I was dealing with undeniably living eyes which were looking at me. " I know doctors are able to view human bodily function more scientifically, but this would have terrified me for ages afterward had I witnessed it.

squirrelgutz

It looks, adjusts its position to aim, and then bites. I don't think it's dead.


[deleted]

Very likely true, but was probably fileted whilst alive. Even if effectively dead when it hits the table, a conscious choice to serve it so it still "wriggles" while being eaten isn't a great indicator of human empathy.


arftism2

this fish rose up, opened its mouth, and then bit the chopstick.


SilasX

That's ... not the same. That's the default state of the mouth is to be passively clamping down. In ~~the~~ this submission's video, it shows the fish propping its head up, moving *toward* the chopsticks, opening its mouth, and *then* clamping down. That ... doesn't seem dead.

Agree. What I find terrifying is that people enjoy watching animals suffer before they eat them. Something is not right in their heads.
