I once was at a buffet dinner in Abu Dhabi where some roughneck referred to calamari as “fried foreskin”. Needless to say that he became very unpopular that evening. I myself couln’t stop laughing for a week.

When my kid was 5 or 6 the only way I could get him to eat calimari was to tell him they were Italian onion rings. He’d eat a few then say, “these onion rings taste like fish!”, then eat a few more, repeat.
