“Octopus Everywhere!”

My sister Carolyn and pretty much her whole family currently have some horrible stomach bug.  My feeling is that these photos won’t help them any.  Hope the rest of you guys enjoy them (well, maybe enjoy is not the best word for these photos).  Sorry ahead of time.

This might give you a further ewww factor, but I have actually eaten these things alive while it was still moving around my plate. It’s called sang nakge (my best phonetic spelling of it) when you eat it like that. Perhaps the worst thing I have eaten in my life. Took a long time to go down.

    Yeah man they got some real good snot coverage on those tentacles. nothing like snotty cephalopod limbs for those times when you got the munchies and broccoli just won’t satisfy! Only thing weirder that someone might eat is the butt flesh of cattle. YUMMY!!!! :-D

    I prefer octopus grilled!

    Yeah, after the alive eating episode I decided that I like them better grilled (or at least not moving).
