I heard this too, like it's pig bung or something. I don't know if it's true but I can't imagine the size of the loving squid you'd need to land to get them rings off it?

Basically calamari is very mysterious but also very tasty.

E: looking it up apparently it's like cross sections of the mantle, I always thought it was like, suckers.

Which is why it was weird because like, you'd have to be catching some massive loving squid all the time to get suckers that big.

God I haven't had calamari in so long, I wish it wasn't so expensive where I live.

Calamari are ring shaped because when you yank out the inedible crap inside the little squids, they're basically hollow cylinders (since the squid is 95% mantle or tentacles). So when you chop it etc, the slices are ring shaped

Pretty small, it's the body of a squid cut into rings, not suction cups (if that's what u mean?)

Frankly I feel like a little bit of joy in my heart has died now that I know where calamari comes from. Farewell mystical sea meat of my dreams, hello mundane squid slices. You may never taste as sweet again.

It's a little bit of a mystery that it hasn't.

The Australian version is a shitload of chips covered with a shitload of gyro meat (one or more kinds), with a shitload of BBQ Sauce, Garlic Sauce and Chilli Sauce slathered all over it. Best served at two in the morning while utterly sloshed.

If you landed one of them collosal squids, the sort that get in fights with whales and drag ships into the inky black abyss of the ocean floor, how big would the rings be once you sliced it up?


Theoretically speaking.

One of my must do things when I was visiting Toronto last year was some real poutine. While which poutine that is can start a (Canadian) fight, a large group suggested, and I can confirm that Smoke's Poutinerie was amazing and probably took two months off my life. It's probably a good thing they're very far away from me now.

About the size of a truck tyre, apparently.

I also like "about" 982 millimeters wide.

I like the calamaris you get with the tiny squids where they don't chop anything and you just eat a whole deep fried sea monster.

Sorry, bud. Giant and colossal squid have a lot of ammonia in their flesh. Probably due to weird biochemistry to counter pressure at depth.

They would not be edible by any means.

In hindsight it actually makes a lot of sense that squid rings would not be made out of suckers because all the suckers go to make spaghetti hoops instead.

Exploration is ill-advised.

Funny thing is that gatling guns are specifically designed to avoid that kind of overheating problem, with the barrels having time to cool off as they rotate before being fired again. Weird thing is this design predates machine guns as we know them.

The other kind of calamari I presume is from the mantle being cut lengthways.

We already solved this problem. You just soak it in piss, and bury it on the beach for a year or two.

IIRC cutting calamari into rings instead of lengthwise is to prevent it from curling up when cooked.
