Funny thing is, my dad and his best friend just got back from a fishing trip. His friend is Japanese. I was over visiting while they were unloading the boat. His friend asked me if I wanted any dried squid. I said “ewww no!”. He started laughing and said when I was a baby he gave it to me to teethe on and I loved it. It’s just a shame that my mom contaminated me by saying everything that isn’t steak or chicken breast is “icky”!
