Woman, 63, 'becomes PREGNANT in the mouth' with baby squid after eating calamari
Woman was 'eating when she felt a prickling sensation in her mouth' She was chewing 'sperm sacks', which forcefully shoot sperm Sperm in turn try to embed themselves when they land But have no fear in the West... Squid's internal organs are (generally) removed before serving

A 63-year-old woman became 'pregnant' with 12 baby squid after eating calamari, according to a claim in a bio-tech report.
The real-life 'octo-mum', from South Korea, was eating a portion of cooked whole squid when she felt a sharp pain in her mouth.
The bizarre claim has been made in a scientific paper from the National Center for Biotechnology Information in Bethesda, Maryland.
Good enough to give birth to? The woman from South Korea was eating cooked squid when she 'was impregnated by the sea creature'
The lady told doctors that she could feel something in her mouth which they described as 'bug-like organisms'.
When examined, the doctors found 'baby cephalopods' attached to her mouth. These are small pods, covered in a cement-like material to make them stick.

Mystery solved folks. I think we’ve finally found odumbo’s real mommy.
What has been read cannot be unread!
We need a demotivational poster with those words with a freaked out cat on it.
Geesh, Doug. Thanks for this nightmare.
“According to Science 2.0, a spermatophore is similar to a cup of semen.”
Reminds me of an old joke,,,, which I will not tell,,,, because I like it here!
Ha!
Oh, Yuck!!
I went to the website, with eyes closed, hoping to see a photo of this lady’s oral cavity. No suck luck.
The article mentions that there was another lady who was squid struck last year.
My question is, does this only happen to the female gender or have men also been impregnated? All mouths are the same aren’t they? or is raw squid served to the female gender as some sort of ritual?

Confucius say woman who eat squid sperm make womb for daddy.
Isn’t this part of the plot to “Aliens”?
You gotta admit it’s a catchy headline though.

I'm so embarrassed.
Inside the pods is an ‘ejaculatory apparatus’ and sperm - with the apparatus expelling the sperm quite forcefully.
After the victim of the ‘attack’ was hospitalised, doctors removed the baby cephalopods from her gums, tongue and cheek. It was only then that the pods were formally identified as ‘squid spermatophores.’
Western calamari fans need not worry as much about falling pregnant to a squid as internal organs are usually removed before consumption

The Center’s paper says: ‘She did not swallow the portion, but spat it out immediately. She complained of a pricking and foreign-body sensation in the oral cavity.
