Talk:Ikezukuri

I put in the bit about Ikezukuri of shrimp only being banned in Germany because of what Revth said on my talk page on the subject. While I haven't been able to verify that it is permissible to cut apart a living fish according to German laws, I have not found any evidence to the contrary on a cursory browse of German animal protection laws. However, most German cooking websites that mentioned lobster included a cautionary notice that crustaceans must not be cut apart while they are alive under German law. Strangely I haven't found any reference to that in the law resources I searched either. Maybe some reference to this apparent legal situation should be included in the article, even though I've been unable to verify it so far. -- Cohen the Bavarian 10:20, 18 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Hmmm.., I would ask Revth for (his?) source, but I believe he is inactive at the moment; there's an edit on the soba page that I wanted to ask him about.  But I have more problems with the sentence about shrimp feeling pain, but not fish.  That seems dubious to say the least. Dforest 12:56, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
