    But some grocers have a tank of live ones. I have never bought seafood like that. Do they give it to you live or do they kill it in the store before purchase?

    They give it to you live. My middle school home ec teacher thought they killed it for you, brought home two live lobsters and the only pot she had that they’d fit in was a glass one. She watched the poor things scrambling at the sides of the pot as they boiled alive. She didn’t buy live lobster again. Then she told the story to her home ec students, every year.
