I'm not aware of any recipes that force the lobster to gorge itself before killing it? Most lobster recipes usually involve bisecting the lobster's head with a sharp knife (killing it instantly), or dunking it into boiling water (which is probably incredibly painful for the duration, but ostensibly kills it within 10 seconds or so).

Presumably the above poster is referring to the viewing of the practice of boiling the lobster alive as torture.

Not OP but yeah, it's even illegal in some places: https://i.redd.it/9njvxxae6pad1.png
