Japanese culinary sensation! Odori don - translated means "dancing squid rice bowl." The dish is prepared with a freshly killed squid served over a bowl of sushi rice. A chemical reaction occurs between the salt in the soy sauce and ions in the squid creating electrical impulses which cause the tentacles to move. After the "show," the squid is then returned to the kitchen for normal preparation.

fresh seafood there. reminds me of my bio lab in college. the science dept. raised frogs for dissection, so we would have to dispatch them with a needle inserted in the brain via the base of the skull. you then had to reverse your path and enter the spinal column, which would make the frog legs twitch. it was pretty neat looking.

Bizzare Foods with Andrew Zimmern featured that one time. He ate it and then showed it moving around in his mouth!

Oh, man, I can eat my weight in squid.

Now I'm hungry for a baby octopus at Ginza.

I don't know exactly what it is, but there's just something very wrong about that. I'm normally not squeamish, but I don't know if I could make myself choke that down. I fully understand the concept of killing and animal for consumption, but there's just something a little weird about killing it, making it look alive again, then cooking it.
