For what reason are they cooked {alive}

There is a huge amount of controversy about why it is necessary to boil crustaceans {live}. The main premise will be that dead individuals are unsafe for the human body. In their natural environment, they feed on carrion, and therefore are carriers of pathogenic microbes. Eating dead lobsters threatens a person with severe poisoning. That's why they are boiled while still {alive}. When choosing this delicious product, you must pay attention to the condition of the crustacean itself: it should rotate its claws and not be sluggish. Slowness means quick death, and therefore poses a danger to human health.
