We do not know much, but we can also draw conclusions from the habitat. eg the question whether shells can come into contact with hot sources. If so, her body will feel this in order to deal with this danger in the habitat. From behavior and way of life, findings can be obtained as far as not available scientifically.

One does evil to many creatures and often it becomes clear in retrospect what consequences this has for these beings. I've never eaten lobsters and I'll never do it because I don't want to identify myself with this kind of preparation.

I hope you're vegan. For pigs, cows and chickens, for example, are deserving and severely tortured. (Also in the dairy industry and egg industry.) Inform yourself.

Every animal has pain receptors. These animals need to know when and where in the body something is not okay. However, it is necessary to be able to perceive pain as such, a brain. Only the brain really interprets pain as such.

The shells thus get a signal that something is not in order (that they cook), but that is to be called "pain" is quite far away, as they do not have the necessary brain functions to interpret it as pain.

Bullshit. They're soft animals. They don't even have a brain…

If you buy them deep pipes, they're dead. Who wants to eat animal food must also kill them POINT

No, you don't know… Where are all these enslaved asking?

They are not even afraid, because this requires a more developed brain. You will be disoriented for a moment, then you will receive the message that it is too hot all around and will shortly be dead.

That was another explanation for dudan1233.

I have sufficient knowledge of biology and cooking technology.

I know. So?

This very simple stimulus reaction pattern is useful when cooking. Good shells react to the heat irritation with opening, the unfittable remain closed and are sorted out.

I don't know if science once examined this. Nerves alone do not cause any pain that arises only in the brain. If shells do not have such a thing that can process nerve irritation, it seems implausible that they can feel pain.

But with last certainty, you don't know.

Lobsters are much more advanced from evolution, the throwing in boiling water appears barbaric here. I think there are plausible reasons for lobsters that they can feel pain, but also pausible reasons that they do not feel pain (eg to small brain size, not a localizable pain center?)

Therefore, the debate will continue to be held emotionally from both sides instead of fact-based.

EVERY Animal feels pain… Of course also a shell or lobster, or crab if it is thrown in boiling water… 😉

Shells also have a nervous system with which they can feel stimulate like pain. Yes.

Every living thing would add helly pain to let it boil alive

Depending on the water temperature, this can take a while until all soft parts are boiled and finally life disappears

When throwing you into boiling water, you don't have to be boiled before you're dead. This is much faster.

If they were dry before, they would already be dead.

when I think about it now I didn't know what I always did to the shells….

Only that you do not use dead shells….

Does it hurt to put in a hot tub??? How does it feel when the water boils??? Surely the shell or the lobster suffers. In DE, you wouldn't kill a cow or a cow like that

Completely incompetent statement. Unfortunately not the only one here that I find very scary.

Here one compares the human feeling of pain, the feeling of pain of vertebrates and the feeling of pain of vertebrates. Biologically provided complete mumbo jumbo and a pure emotional view or rather misinterpretation.

Dumb is the one who has no idea. 1. Shells are not developed so far to feel pain and 2. the shells are dead in 1-2 seconds when throwing them into the boiling water.

Even never been a shell – but I guess…
