Reference for Avodah Zarah 117:9

ועל תורמוסן משום בישולי עובדי כוכבים לפי שאינן בני תורה טעמא דאינן בני תורה הא בני תורה שרי והאמר רב שמואל בר רב יצחק אמר רב כל שנאכל כמות שהוא חי אין בו משום בישולי עובדי כוכבים

[And he decreed] against their lupines because of the prohibition of eating food cooked by non-Jews, because [the inhabitants of Gavla] were not students of Torah. His reason was that they were not students of Torah. Had they been students of Torah, [the lupines] would have been permitted! But surely R. Shmuel son of R. Yitzchak said in the name of Rav: Whatever is eaten raw does is not prohibited on account of having been cooked by Gentiles.
