(As an aside, I've experienced fish jumping while I was cooking them, several minutes after their heads had been removed. I can't believe that it was a result of pain or suffering on the part of the fish. Severing the nerves in cattle is a similar situation.) | |

| Dec 17, 2020 at 15:26 | comment | added | Kazi bácsi | It's not a proper answer, but I suppose it would be relevant to read the words of the late R' Sacks that he said in the House of Lords: hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2014-01-16/debates/14011665000550/… | |
