Giant Squids: they're just like what I figured: aggressive and nasty beasts (Wash. Post).How big do architeuthisologists (sic.) think they get?
Up to 18 m (59 ft) and up to 900 kg (1,980 lb, nearly 1 ton).
It's like that scene out of the latest Alien movie - those nasty things swimming throught the flooded chambers. Scary stuff.
I had one of its cousins for an appetizer at 360 restaurant at the CN Tower last week. It was so good. It was about 4 inches long, sliced and gently braised. I stopped to ponder mid-chew. It is like chewing a piece of rubber that's been softened in a nice marinade for a long while.
I love calimari.
