In my country(Istra),when you enter the fishmarket,the fish that you are buying is not swimming like in China,but it is still breathing(its in the box with ice),and cancers are still walking in their boxes...mostly everything is still alive...
Lucien, come on, turn on your brain! The fish is in a box with ice! It defiantly isn't breathing and thus not alive! The only thing still alive that you can find in a fish market in Croatia are crabs and fresh water fish which is kept in tanks.
I generally think that people should eat more blue fish. It's healthier and in my opinion tastier. And there are a lot of blue fish species that are very easy to eat because they have few bones and some are so tiny that you can eat them with the bone without having to fear it getting stuck in your throat.

Over here, they're trying to convince people to eat more 'oily fish', so generally the types that are tiny and full of bones. >.< Like anchovies..
Hm. Maybe Lucien Lachance is on about fresh fish that when only just put on ice, it's still twitching? Don't think it'd be put on ice completely alive, otherwise they'd be flipping around everywhere, so it's probably after-slaughter-twitch.

What kind of fish do you mean by 'blue fish'?

Yeah, I checked, I mean 'oily fish' which sounds a bit stupid to me because that type of fish has less fat then white fish. We call it blue fish, the other type is white fish here too.
Generally those small/tiny oily fish, like the Sardina pilchardus, have just the spine bone and are really easy to eat, so I don't know in which form can you possibly eat them to have problems with bones.
Lucien surely isn't thinking about that, becasue when the fish arrive at the market they have been in those ice filled boxes for some time so they aren't twitching (mostly they are still very bent because of rigor mortis) and yes, they are put on that ice still alive (if they are still alive in the first place). There isn't any special slaughter method for most fish, you just get them out of the sea and they die because they can't breath outside of water. I know that you have to bleed out Tuna fish right when you get it out of the water because otherwise the meat won't be good...

With fish like pilchards, yes, there's a main spine thing that is easy to pick out, but there are tiny little bones all the way throughout the body too..Most people will just chomp those up whole because they break easy, but I won't go near them..I used to eat them, but ever since uhh my fish bone accident, I haven't dared to.
