Rav Acha bar Yakov maintains that an animal that twitches (Mefarkeses) after it is slaughtered with a valid Shechitah is considered alive with regard to the prohibition of Ever Min ha'Chai for a Nochri. A Nochri who eats a limb of the animal during that stage transgresses the Isur of Ever Min ha'Chai. Rav Papa argues, based on the reasoning, "Is there anything that is permitted for a Jew but is prohibited to a Nochri?"
Which opinion does the Halachah follow?
(a) The RIF records the conclusion of the Gemara that quotes a Beraisa that says, "One who wants to eat meat from an animal before it dies [after it is slaughtered properly] should cut a piece of meat from the area of the Shechitah, salt it well, rinse it well, and wait for the animal to die, and then he may eat it. Both a Nochri and a Jew may eat it."
The RAN explains that although a Nochri may not eat from an animal that he slaughters until the animal dies, a Nochri may eat from an animal that a Jew slaughters (after following the procedure of the Beraisa), because of the logic of Rav Papa.
We explore the notion of Halacha differences between Jews and gentiles in other areas to compare.
