The frogs (mostly Asian species) are cut in half when they are still alive.

The behand half (the legs and hips) are thrown in a big basket and the other half (the head and so) is thrown away in the bush.
But that part is still alive!!! And stays alive for some time untill they bleed to dead.
Can you imagine how painfull this must be?

Don't get me wrong. This is no personal attack to you, GarterGuy.
But I just want people to know how these froglegs are produced.

Personally I leave a restaurant where I see froglegs on the menu and tell the restaurantowner why I leave.
Yikes!!! No hey, no offense taken....I had no idea! Considering the fact that there's tons of stuff I don't buy, due to the fact of animals being mistreated, it's good to know that this is also something I should avoid. I just don't get people sometimes....how they could be so cruel to another living thing.
