Fish are also extremely tasty.
"In some countries, such as the United Kingdom and Norway, fish farms have largely adopted humane slaughter methods. Instead of suffocating fish in air—the easiest and historically the most common practice—or freezing them to death in ice water, or poisoning them with carbon dioxide, they render fish unconscious with either a quick blow to the head or strong electrical currents, then pierce their brains or bleed them out."

I'm not quite sure if it applies to fish, but mammals generally become less tasty if they suffer before dying, because of miscellaneous metabolic activities that stress hormones trigger or accelerate. Most chefs recommend killing edible animals painlessly so that they would be more delicious.
ReplyDeleteAndres Soolo Most chefs sound pretty similar to cartoon monsters. Didn't the trolls in The Hobbit have exactly that discussion?
