Personally, I prefer calamari, but actual octopus sushi is good too.

Yes, if it’s fresh there’s nothing better.

I wish there were more of these, because I never eat anything with more than seven arms.

Ray Harryhausen had one of these. It was cheaper to eliminate 2 of the legs.

From the article. It’s not a different species, just a malformed common octopus. It was probably destined to be eaten by a shark and never seen the light of the kitchen. Eat it and enjoy.

Read the comments from the article for some anti-american hate.

Yawn. It’s easy to subtract a couple legs from an octo/hepto/sextopus.

However, a nine-legged nonopus... now THAT would grab my attention!

I read them after your post. I’ve seen similar animal worshiping comments right here on FR. The problem of posting pictures for the world to see is nut cases and governments also see them.

“Read the comments from the article for some anti-american hate.”

Those damned foreigners may rest assured that the resentment is mutual.

Yes, there’s the typical attitude from Europeans re: Americans. Everyone should go look at those comments, and also review the most highly and worse rated ones. I hope USA people are never so dumb as to rescue Europe from itself again.

I doubt we could even rescue ourselves.
