I love seafood, and eat all manner of seafood, and have not once, in my entire life, seen anyone eat LIVE seafood.

Who the fuck are you hanging out with?

Oysters on the half shell, raw, are alive not dead. I love seafood too, and eat raw sashimi grade fish all the time but yeah I've never eaten a raw alibe oyster either.

You gotta try it bruh, on the half shell with cocktail sauce and horseradish 🤤

The guy complaining about how common it is doesn't seem to live in any of those regions though. Most seafood is not consumed live, even in those places. It's weird that that's the major complaint with seafood.

Many people go their entire seafood eating lives while never eating from a live creature.

Like a shrimp is basically a rectum.

All animals are basically digestive tubes with add-on parts to help move it and keep it alive.
