You ate a giant rollie pollie bug?  I'm a good sport, but would have to pass on that and the horseshoe crab.

As a kid, we used to catch horseshoe crabs and sell them to the local lobstermen for bait. Once there was a couple of people who showed up at the beach we were catching them on, who wanted a few to eat... They said the the meat was in the base of the tail, and tasted much like lobster.

I eat cuttlefish whenever I can get it but not the way they cook it.  Usually dried like jerky with some honey and chili.  Japanese snack food or dried and sliced into strips.  Jelly fish w/tree fungus and shitake mushrooms if made Chinses style bland.  Ate Sea cucumber once very different.  :shocked:

I'd love to try the cuttlefish and most of that stuff wouldn't bother me, but no way could I eat the rollie pollie bug.

I make dried cuttlefish like beef jerky or dried fish.  Good for protein snack.  Whenever I get a slab of marlin, I'll make dried marlin.  Last one I got was a 15lb slab of marlin.  You can only eat so much as an entree.   :food:

I love canned cuttlefish prepared in its own ink. I usually buy "Vigo" brand , from Spain, and its very good. a can of cuttlefish added to steamed rice, is a real treat!

I worked in restaurants for years. I had a table with this sweet little old lady who ordered the calamari and told me "but I don't want any of the testicles".

Try sea squirt, if you can find it at your local Korean market

Never tasted anything like it and would not mind try it again, but must have the chili sauce and soju to go with it.

More on the Chilean Sea Squirt....Piure or "poor man's viagra".  Looks way out there but the taste as described by those that have eaten it.   :boozing:
