Hey Ron,the same young bloke had a jar of pickled octopi at work last week.We told him to be very careful as people have died instantly from eating baby blue ring octopus accidently included in the jar.Watching him inspect every one 3 times over was priceless.
Teasing children is good fun:cool::cool::cool::cool:(20 going on 12)

Yep that too (shrinkage) of course when doing on a hot plate. Keep forgetting I deal more with fresh stuff down here than frozen.:p It is amazing how long occy, squid and cuttlefish will store some residual elektrickery. The one we did for brock was a big bugger and was in water so would not think it should shrink as we were boiling it and it was almost as though it was trying to climb out the pot. Really funny to watch. Cooked it then marinated it some more. I hate the stuff.
