Traditionally, it is cooked with head, tail, etc... butterly opened... But I must confess that I cannot see the head and tail if I have to cook it, so I ask the butcher to remove them. It is delicious, though.....
I have the same problem with fish.... I cannot see the heads.
As for throwing a live crab or lobster in a large pot of boiling water.... I'd rather die of starvation. Some things, I can't simply do. I may have to become a vegetarian if I keep on going like this.
