The main component of this ink is water, followed by some melanin and polysaccharides. It also contains toxins that can paralyze living organisms, but have little effect on humans. Moreover, these toxins are denatured and inactivated by heat when cooked, so octopus ink is edible as long as it is consumed correctly.
So, with ? popping the head? method of tasting octopus, is it good? Is it really as tasty as some anchors describe?
What's the score's point of view
① If I were a person who grew up living by the sea and watched my elders and relatives and friends around me eating this way when I was a child, then I would probably choose to eat it this way, and I'd think that this kind of food is tasty, and that it's ? Hometown flavor? But if I were not a person who grew up in such an environment, this might be unacceptable. Let's take Beijing's famous snack bean juice as an example. In the eyes of those who have been used to it since childhood, soybean milk is a delicacy that can't be exchanged for gold. If you don't drink it for a few days, you can't swallow it. However, for someone who hasn't been exposed to soymilk since childhood, there's a good chance they won't be able to eat it. Octopus feeds directly from the ink in a similar way. Therefore, anchors may eat octopus because they were raised in the environment they were born in, so they think it's delicious.
② There is also the possibility that because eating octopus is more visually appealing, some anchors choose to eat octopus even if they don't like it. Because we are watching? eating broadcast? s can't taste it, so the main way we get the information is pictures and the host's description, so the visual impact is very appealing.
Those who eat octopus in front of the camera are still looking for attention, so this kind of eating that causes viewers to marvel, exclaim, and hype up the atmosphere is a big part of some of ? eating broadcasts? It's very common on them. Even if some people don't think the ink is tasty, they still choose to eat it. At this point in time, ? Eating octopus? thing is just a job requirement for them.
Let's summarize:
1) The octopus ink is edible, but it should be cooked thoroughly before consumption, otherwise there will be some toxins. While it may not be visibly damaging, this is not a good thing.
② Whether this food tastes good or not depends on personal preference. Generally speaking, if you haven't eaten it before and are just curious, it's not recommended to try it.
③ ? Eat Radio? s some contents can be enjoyed and entertained. We don't have to take them seriously, let alone imitate them. Eating habits are a very personal thing. ? You can't eat without taste, but you can eat in moderation? ,?a of honey, b of arsenic? are all vividly expressed.
Lastly, let us briefly share the ? magical? creature the octopus.
The octopus is actually a ? superorganism? They have three hearts, two of which supply blood to the gills and one to the whole body. In addition, octopuses have two memory systems and 10,000 more genes (yes, four zeros) than humans. They also have a main brain and eight sub-brains, with 60% of their neurons scattered across eight wrists and feet. So when an octopus decides to ? attack? when it does, its wrists and feet can even ? think? how to grab it, which is much more control than we humans have over our limbs.
In addition, many octopuses have high IQs and are good at learning. They even use tools more than higher primates (orangutans). They are brilliant at ? sneakers? and? masters of escape? Some have even suggested that octopuses are our dish meal because they are lazy evolutionaries and flout the rules.
