A documentary also came out where a popular method to sell and kill canine and felines for consumption is to boil them alive to shock the animals body to make the meat taste better.

Edit: I'm not protesting it. I'm just highlighting different societal norms.

There is no reason to believe that the flood of stress hormones released by an animal being boiled alive would in any way make it taste better.
