i'm confused, it's just octopus, people round here (sydney australia) eat them all the time, nothing particularly exotic or anything. Personally the only issue i could see would be the intelligence of an octopus, which I would think outstrips a house cat (i say as mine jumps into a window chasing a fly). It has even been proven that they can communicant with their chromatophores and pass on learning.

I love Oz but I not sure if the land that gave the world Vegemite is really the place to be declaring any food consumed by the locals to not be odd.




evyy -> RE: Octopus (9/30/2006 10:08:36 PM)

wonderful wonderful vegemite!

My sisters prepare it wonderfully.
I've eaten it and loved it.

LOL...thank you, I prefer things I eat to have fewer legs (weg).




jesskitty -> RE: Octopus (10/1/2006 9:07:57 AM)

taste just like chicken!

i'd rather eat fried squid than fried octopus, there's just something about the way they look that is creepy and scarry at the same time.

How much did the Chinese restaurant get for selling the octopus' organs for transplantation I wonder?



Second post I've seen from you with china knocking.

Just saying

LOL...I've noticed that this is the comment made about many other foods as well. I still can't help thinking..it it taste like chicken, wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy chicken? Maybe I'm just looking at it too logically.




SirKenin -> RE: Octopus (10/1/2006 1:54:23 PM)

I have eaten baby octopus.  I do not see what the attraction is to it.  It is ok I guess, but nothing I would get a craving for.




BlkTallFullfig -> RE: Octopus (10/2/2006 12:59:08 AM)

It definitely doesn't taste like chicken.   Might be more like other lesser legged things you eat scooter. [&:] M




willow06 -> RE: Octopus (10/2/2006 2:55:25 AM)

I've eaten baby octopi on sushi, but the best experience was in S. Korea.  Someone in our group pointed out a live octopus in a tub of water.  The lady with the tub yanked it out, cut it into pieces,  and put it on a plate with hot sauce.  The pieces were squirming off the plate.  There is nothing like putting a piece of tentacle in your mouth and having it stick to your lip.




BlkTallFullfig -> RE: Octopus (10/2/2006 2:57:38 AM)

Now Willow,
I will eat well cooked octopus, but would never ever touch moving meat (well, yah know which moving meat I mean).  M

Its about the tenth I think, without counting. But this one was meant to be a humorous one related to the thread about organ transplants for cash in China.

I'm not picking on China unfairly anyway. After all, I pick on just about everyone. Its one of those things with having a boring life thats hardly worth the living - it passes the time and sometimes results in human contact.

I'll have to keep this short, there's some picking on to be done elsewhere. Brits are the best to pick on, they take it so personally.

which is exactly why i comented with it! because that's what everyone says other meats beside beef taste like! what does crocodile taste like? chicken! what does frog legs taste like? chicken! not being a huge meat eater i wouldn't honestly know but i found it amusing [:)]
