I don't even think non-Jews should be eating lobster or crabs, because it's cruel and it's unhealthy.

Aren't lobsters and crabs white meat???

I love animals but I also eat meat. There is nothing wrong with eating meat so long as the animal is slaughtered with a goal of not causing pain.

Just be careful with the pork. I have family out there!!!

The color of the meat may be white but like other people have said in this thread, they eat all the trash in the sea and absorb a lot of nasty things into their flesh.

If it helps any the scream probably had to do with the exoskeleton and escaping air like Pheasant said. Crustaceans do feel pain though, they have a nervous system.

Why all this talk about Treif here in the Torah section... Both Shrimp and Lobsters are forbidden for Jews to eat. They are both bottom-feeders and not Kosher.

I am not making a case that Shrimp and lobsters are in anyway kosher but I thought in the case of fish, if they have fins and scales they are kosher, regardless if they are bottom feeders or not?
