Do you kill them first or do you toss em in alive?
I buy them frozen. I think they're already cooked, so pretty pointless to get fancy with them, probably.

When I lived in Hong Kong we would buy the food alive. My mum would put crabs in the saucepan with warm water and slowly turn it up. She said they went to sleep first and then died. Pretty sure she's just prolonging their torture.

That's interesting, we always get fresh live lobsters when we get em from the store. My dad free dives for them when he's down in Aruba. I toss those sons of bitches in the water already boiling, they always talk shit so they deserve it.

She also told you about Santa and the Easter bunny, mateface.

I haven't actually popped them into water but I've bought live lobsters, put them in the freezer for an hour then husband has put them straight into boiling water. Kindest way to do it apparently, they get sleepy in the freezer then before they know it they're buggered.

Typing that out made me feel guilty.

You get 2 extra marks for spelling omelette correctly and the fancy pants slice of decorative tomato.
I honestly didn’t know there was on other way to spell omelette.

I diced half the the tomato for the omelette and sliced the other half so we could all make a toasted bacon tomato sandwich.

Most Americans spell it omlete. I'm probably fucking up the spelling fuck up haha.
