The meat on the body is in the form of a cylinder and the meat is an inch or more thick. It's a bit tough but gelatinous. Tenderizing is easy. Most are not eaten as calamari rings. Instead the meat is cut into steaks, breaded, and fried. Usually the thickness has to be reduced to about 1/2".<br /><br />2. The shark was going after the head which is the tenderest part.<br /><br />3. Squid are cannibalistic. This one could have been killed by other squid. I notice that most of the tentacles are missing.Jim22http://therealrevo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-42736639792743718152012-06-07T09:33:54.653-05:002012-06-07T09:33:54.653-05:00Eating calamari is like chewing on rubber bands, t...Eating calamari is like chewing on rubber bands, that must have been one hungry shark.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530748998376076224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-47031924142341358752012-06-07T03:51:08.733-05:002012-06-07T03:51:08.733-05:00Calamari from a giant squid, no, the 'meat'...Calamari from a giant squid, no, the 'meat' has a very strong Ammonia taste, rendering it very unpalatable.Stuart Garfath, Sydney.
