What about the abalone? 130 USD. Is that valid?

Without alcohol this was normal fare since these establishments are for social diners with small appetites (not these two). Guaranteed they hit McDonalds an hour later.

Shipping cost

​@@rachelshaub1742shipping cost? They bottle it in Japan.

It's like paying 3.50 for a soda in a restaurant and acting like a free refill is worth it. When the cost per serving is maybe .15 at most.

****gulp**** that thing is mooovin !!! aaaaaaah

Nobody who knows what the cooking style is about for sure. I think the first time I had fresh sushi, I was more concerned wih the druy Bonito fish flakes come to life on top of my hot shrimp skewers moving around! It never fails to amaze me how people start becoming squeamish after wanting to experience what they know is coming so bad afterwards

Looks like something an Klingon would order

better than being served 6 months old Fish corpse with flies laying egg in it and flying around this is more common than you think, because in the kitchen people can't tell the difference that's why seafood restaurants often have fish tank and fish in it, because you're guaranteed to be served a fresh fish, and not a 5 Months fish corpse it's more of culture thing. if you live in a country where serving Rotten meat is a common occurence, you'll value a fresh fish too

@@jensenraylight8011 I live in a country that loves to show off, big money characteristics to impress, at as cheap the cost as they can make it, but still look expensive. You can go to a very GOOD restaurant down here in Canada...totally top notch, and still when you order a live lobster out of a tank, it could be very, VERY OLD, and in the tank with lobsters that were already dead a day! Most of the fresh lol seafood down here in Toronto, smell like ammonia and throw up! FRESH MEANS *YOU GO TO ST.LAWRENCE FISH MARKET, AND BUY LIVE SEAFOODS TO COOK AT HOME YOURSELF. Something I am good at and love, but don't always have the time to do.

Keeps birds from singing all night.

rip. at least their final resting place was in the warm happy belly of Dancing Bacon

bit confronting haha

i know. :-( it really looked like get me the fuck out of here. i had to turn it off. we really have to find a way to treat our live food better.

@@user-fb9tg8wk2hI turned it off too. As much as I love DB, I can’t watch things like that. It makes me sad.

I just couldn't bring myself to eat something that's still trying to crawl off the plate when it gets to the table.

LOL

Like what? like Lion eating Deer while it was still Alive? Like wolf Hunt down Elk and eating it while it was still alive? Cat eat Mouse while it still alive? Basically almost all Animal on earth eat their prey while it was still alive and moving. oh, now you want all Animal on earth to Kill their prey as humanely as possible? Being Eaten alive is way worse than being Steamed in a minute, basically almost instant death, which is more humane than how most animal hunt and eat their prey just because you're not the one dirtying your hand, doesn't mean you've a moral high ground. Just appreciate your food and enjoy it, by doing it, you're respecting the animal, and gratitude toward your food and the chef who prepare it for you

@@jensenraylight8011 "oh, now you want all Animal on earth to Kill their prey as humanely as possible?" > That's a quite ridiculous and completely made up interpretation of that silly comment. Congratulations. "Being Eaten alive is way worse than being Steamed in a minute" > Steamed alive is way worse than getting dispatched properly - in this case by being dumped in icewater, which doesn't cause any pain. Your logic doesn't make any sense. By our logic, assisted suicide by stabbing someone in the stomache with a dull knife would be completely fine, because that's better than being eaten alive by bedbugs. "Just appreciate your food and enjoy it, by doing it, you're respecting the animal, and gratitude toward your food and the chef who prepare it for you" > That's BS. How is it respectful to torture an animal, when there is a proper way to dispatch it?

@@CD-kg9by did you even read your own comment? Because neither of your argument was strong enough to damage my argument at all, it was like written by 5yo Which makes me really confused about what to reply You're trying to fight against my argument for the sake of fighting alone, justification everywhere, and clearly didn't think things thoroughly This is my first time reading an argument written so badly

@@jensenraylight8011 Now you're just trolling. Pathetic.

😂🤣

And the innards 🤢

You do know where meat comes from, right? 😏

> knowing that a few moments prior it was alive and wiggling around@@Tomy_Yon

Same, for me it’s so strange that people go to those sea markets with lots of aquarium and chooses the food alive then go to a restaurant and eats it like it wasn’t alive 5 minutes ago

I eat fish and chicken,but see it dying in front of me would made me not eat it

Yah that kind of made me squeemish too. When it was moving around trying to get away I felt a little sad for it.

It's really not that hard to kill your food before cooking it. I know some stuff like lobsters get bad very quickly after they die, but you still don't have to cook them alive.

Seafood, especially abalones aren't much different from plants on an intellectual level, so i don't get why someone would feel sorry for them...

Yeah the moving right before it dies is definitely weird. But we've also watched him hook a live fish right before eating it. It's just the way they do it over there

​@@April480p Because they're still an animal, and it wouldn't be hard to kill the abalone mere seconds before cooking them.

I'm sure if the only thing left on the planet was us and the abalone, you'd eat them raw. I'm CAF Ret. Para-ambu medic here..and I've had to eat quite a few raw live wriggling creatures in training and otherwise.

​@@angelarigido7161 tbf I think they just meant they felt bad that it was steamed alive. Nothing about eating it raw or anything 🤧

@@canadiancaribou855 Yes of course, but why watch the videos of live fresh seafood being cooked so traditionally if it bothers you...I get it, I'm just saying.

​@@angelarigido7161 because I can watch whatever I choose and feel how I choose 🤷🏾‍♀️ If that's how it is prepared, then so be it. I'm a country girl that grew up around farm animals and hunting, and have seen many live animals dispatched for food purposes. As long as an animal's life isn't wasted, I'm all good over here.

@@shaylebeau you gotta admit the abalone looks good as fuck

Please give her video 👎👎👎👎

The abalone's name translates to LrB and you wouldn't like the curse she laid on you.

My chef said only to the Abalone "Dancing". and laughing i think more English he dont speak

There's a How's it made, factory,.... genre KZfaqr. I unsubscribed when a chef gutted a Pufferfish. Things was moving for minutes after. The comments from the Pro Chef comments, "It's nothing but nerve endings!!!!. You eat meat? What's the problem?" Well, I prefer animals to be dispatched as soon as possible.

@@dlewis9760 almost every religion believes in killing animals in a humane way. Some people do not care. Only because I respect nice lady’s channel I will not speak my mind.

That's the part that bothered you? I was bothered by the fact they salted it and let it writhe in pain *before* they cooked it. At least the cooking process would had been faster (but not much better). Just putting salt on it and letting it suffer because it's amusing to watch for some people? That's literally a child with a salt shaker finding a slug or snail, or finding a magnifying glass to burn ants with. Whoever finds this amusing or pleasurable? They're that kid. They're the kids that enjoy torture p*rn.

Glia cells are pain receptors on non-nervous system organisms. It's why they writhe in pain when cut in half, or when thrown on a grill. Pain is literally the #1 trigger for all survival mechanisms for life on earth. Even unicellular organisms react to painful stimuli. Our ignorance on many things is staggering, but the refusal of people to acknowledge pain responses as actual pain is beyond stupid.

You haven't seen the Japanese cooking of putting a small eel into a pot. In the pot is a brick of tofu. As the water heats up, the animal swimming frantically trying to escape the liquid hell, finally burrowing inside the tofu to escape the heat. It is finally boiled to death and cooked in the tofu. Awful way to kill an animal, as if the suffering adds to the delicacy.

@@intpleb4206 stupid and selfish i add.

@@ms.annthrope415 barbarians cannot feel empathy.

I believe that was probably intentional. Cooking it all in the wagyu fat would definitely be delicious, but they probably wanted distinct and purposeful flavors instead of vegetables that taste kinda like wagyu and rice that also tastes kinda like wagyu.

So that u get to enjoy the natural taste and flavor of the vegetables Not uncommon in japan

You want to have the Vegeta ble, garlic and rice stay the same flavor. That way you can savor different tastes. Not everything needs to be wagyu taste

I don’t understand the reason they brought it out there alive. I have a hard time with meat over all but moving food is not for me

@@slothgami not that i don't agree with you, but it's to show it's fresh since clams should be kept alive just before cooking.

​@@madamerosario to add to your perfectly valid point, Japan is huge on freshness as well. Showing you your food is alive before cooking it (mostly just with seafood) is the highest form of hospitality. It's basically a way of them saying, only the best for our guest/customer.

@@BlackAssassin913 Hopefully they move to serving blackassassin913s

@@slothgami to impress the low

The chef knows how to pour the salt without it touching his arm.

You sprinkle the seasonings from higher up for a more even coating. The difference between this chef and salt bae is this chef isn't sprinkling on his nasty arm first like that idiot does.

Thank you for posting this I read comments before watching, couldn't handle that in my head. I am a vegetarian but I will ear some meat rarely, too many animals killed inhumanely for me. Thank you

Or having to swallow live tiny octopi, when you can have them cooked in front of you nice and fresh!

Beni haha! Lol

You could go to Singapore.

@@theexpresidentsa lot people might be eating raw noodles for everyday’s meals right now, mate.

I think I’m in love with this chef, who wouldn’t love to have a man or woman like this in their life

simpletons are impressed by nonsense as usual

100%!!! Me too! I always keep abalone shells that we eat :)

Ditto

Yes 🙌 it does 😊Happy new years 🎆❤️

I had to stop watching, I'd like to watch the chef work but cooking a creature alive for one's one enjoyment is needlessly cruel (and I couldn't care less about if it can feel pain or not, it's still horrible.) I strongly feel as creatures with advanced intelligence that dominate the food chain, the least we can do is respect the creatures we eat for the sake of it, not for survival. It might be something baked into Japanese culture but that doesn't make it right. D:

@@ArtzyZeroI agree. We used to go hunting with my grandpa for deer, and he was so good at doing it! But he’d always make sure it was a quick death and then taught us to thank the deer and respect our food.

absolutely agree - I had to stop watching. Not for me at all! Completely unnecessary...@@ArtzyZero

It's a flex how tough the chef and eaters are. "I'm better than you, because you are weak". Tempted to drop these 2 because of that. They actually gloat that it was alive.

@@dlewis9760 💯☝

Guy has a clearly well practiced technique.

Same! No judging anyone though.

Judge them, dispatch what you eat quick and with respect not try and make it like a ballet.

I love this comment 😂

Hahahaha 😅😅😅

Well I ain't know, that's where Bologna came from...😅😅😅

yea

My guess is they had the decency to actually kill the damn things. Here everything is extremely unnecessary.

What a Weiner 😂

Me too.....

As far as i know abalone dont really feel pain

@@Gewmmy I'd say its very likely they respond to and feel some kind of negative stimuli.

Urrrgh!

Probably alot of things just haven't tried em all yet?

basically everything that you can also make in a pan. It's just that - a big pan.

Abalone is an endangered species? Oh, I had to look that up. It looks like a lot of them are, but not all of them. I wonder which one they're eating here? I have no idea. But yeah, dude.. don't salt it and let it suffer because weeee it's fun and cool to look at! :D :D :D That's gross. :/ Humans are gross.

First up, i found watching this part confronting but understand people would enjoy not just the flavour, but the show as well. Who am i to judge. One thought though: I hope they use Australian abalone. The industry is very highly regulated here and heavy penalties apply for poaching or over fishing. The cost of the licence to farm abalone is astronomical - I know a guy who has the licence for the Warrnambool area in Victoria and he is beyond wealthy.
