    I’m weirdly hooked on the cuttlefish flavored snacks they have at the Asian markets. Oh and I ate octopus last week. I felt terribly guilty, but it was delicious. Penance?

    Probably 25 years ago I went with a friend to a health food store and found tofu hot dogs with “natural wiener flavoring”. I always wondered where that came from, too.

    Natural wiener dogs, naturally.

    But as David repeatedly have told us, there are no freshwater cephalopods.

    Or so they would have us believe!

    Cephalo, cephalo, cephalo starts with C!

    Clam juice! It’s available at your local grocer!

    A capital suggestion! There’s nothing like a Caesar to warm one’s spirits on a frosty Friday!

    I think you get various types of mollusc flavorings depending upon which part of the polypus bush.
    The seeds themselves, ground up, taste like octopus, while the seed husks are more like squid.
    The root, dried and ground, have a delicate cuttlefish nose to them.
    The leaves of the red mollusc bush, stewed in foods, give a gastropod taste. The blue mollusc bush should not be used.
