Korea. The most famous raw meat dishes in Korea are Korean-style raw beef and live octopus.

Beef stir-fry is made by cutting Korean beef into thin strips and then seasoning it. The whole raw food is stirred together.

Raw beef, raw eggs and raw octopus are raw foods that many people should not dare to try. You can mix them with sesame seeds, mustard, chili pepper and other seasonings and eat them. Raw beef, the fresher it is, the tenderer it is, raw eggs are the icing on the cake, and raw octopus has a slightly sweet taste. The spicy sauce is refreshing for everyone, but the taste is quite strong, and not everyone can accept it.

What is even more frightening to humans is live octopus, which requires almost no special treatment and can be eaten directly. Many people in South Korea suffocate after eating live octopus every year. In Korean food culture since ancient times, there has been a hobby of eating live octopus. They even think that this is a god-given delicacy. Koreans feel that eating live octopus is chewier and eating it raw is fresher. This is the real delicacy.

There is a local Korean rice bowl called "Dancing Octopus", which uses a large octopus that has been passed out after being processed. If the snackers drizzle soy sauce on top, the octopus will dance as if it was electrocuted. This is a famous delicious dish in Korea, but many foreign foodies are still scared by it.

Summary

Each country has its own food culture. We cannot accept eating raw octopus mixed with raw beef, but Koreans love it very much. But for this cultural difference, even if we cannot understand it, we can only respect it. If you are a snack foodie who dare not try this way of eating, then don’t take the risk. After all, it would be a pity to pay the price of your health or life for delicious food.
