Octopus is generally round-headed, while squid is narrow, close to a diamond, and most of them are white squid.
2. Differences in habits. Octopus is very sensitive to light. It usually lives on the dark bottom of the sea and comes out at night. When eating, he will suck minced meat through the sucker on his foot, which can be said to be a very fierce underwater overlord. In human records, large octopus can be tens of meters long and can be regarded as a dinosaur in the ocean. On the other hand, squid is more harmless, faster and more agile.
3. Different tastes. Squid is particularly chewy because of its regular swimming, strong muscles, tough taste, low fat content and a little cartilage. Therefore, barbecue stalls generally use squid as ingredients, and cumin peppers are sprinkled after being processed by fire, which is crisp but not firewood. This is a good product for all ages in Xian Yi.
