CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Are the frozen giant squids self-raised?

1. Are the frozen giant squids self-raised?

It must be the farmed kind, because farmed squid is cheap, so it can basically be bought in the vegetable market.

Squid is an animal of the family Sepia in the order Decapoda. It has a conical body, pale color, light brown spots, a large head, 10 tentacles in front, and a triangular fin at the end of the tail. It often moves in the middle and upper layers of shallow seas and feeds on krill, sardines, silversides, small male fish, etc. It is mainly distributed in tropical and temperate shallow seas.

2. Some people even jokingly call squid an alien species, but is this really the case?

People have all eaten the delicious grilled squid, and everyone thinks that it tastes very delicious. However, when there are too many grilled squids and grilled squids on the snack street, many people will think that they are alien species and do not belong to our country.

I think squid should be considered a native species, and because it lives in a seawater environment, the marine environment around our country is excellent. Moreover, most regions have a history and experience in producing squid, which makes it less likely that squid will become an alien species. Moreover, squid has not become rampant due to factors such as natural enemies, and even many seafood farmers will breed squid, which can prove that squid is not an alien species.

There are many kinds of marine life, and squid is just a particularly delicious one among the many marine life. Workers in different industries in my country have different job scopes. Workers engaged in fisheries will go to the sea to catch marine life to earn some money. Most of the workers who go out to sea to salvage fish will always catch other marine life, and octopus, octopus and squid are among the many marine life. It’s just that people often come into contact with squid in real life, which will cause people to think from the bottom of their hearts that squid is not a Chinese creature, but an alien creature. In fact, the nutritional value of squid is particularly high and it is very delicious.

The selling price of squid is relatively high, which also leads to a higher cost for various small vendors to make fish. Most people have tasted very delicious grilled squid in places that specialize in barbecue. In fact, the squid purchased by vendors is relatively high, which will lead to a higher price after squid is added with various seasonings. In addition, we also see various small vendors making very delicious squid in other ways. In fact, marine organisms will encounter various problems during their growth, such as polluted living environments and insufficient food resources. Therefore, the price of wild squid is higher. 80% of the various squids we eat in real life are artificially farmed squid.

In general, I don’t think squid is an alien species. On the contrary, I think squid is very common in life, and this marine creature has high nutritional value and edible value. Since we can artificially breed squid with excellent taste and nutritional value, there will be a lot of squid in our natural environment. What’s more, squid is not a species unique to a certain country. They live in the ocean, reproduce and develop in the ocean, and thus enter the public eye.

Of course not. Squids live on the seabed and have lived there for a long time. So it is wrong to say so.

This is not the case, because it is just one of the most common creatures in the ocean, and this creature has existed in the Earth's oceans for a very long time.

This is not the case, because it has existed on Earth very early, and the time and place of its existence are well documented.

I don't think that's the case at all. It's just people making random statements and there's no evidence to prove it.

3. Is squid a fish?

Squid is not a fish.

Squids, although they are usually called fish, are actually not fish, but mollusks that live in the ocean. Squids often live in deep-sea rocks and seaweed and are one of the main economic aquatic animals in Fujian Province.

Squid is the only fish in the ocean without scales, bones or fish spines. It has several other names, such as octopus, giant octopus, and smaller ones include king squid, cuttlefish, and cuttlefish. They are similar in shape, with a slender, long conical body and tentacles with suction cups.

Most squids are caught from the ocean and there is currently no artificial breeding in Fujian Province. Squid has very high requirements for the marine environment. The squid caught at the estuary of Sanjiangkou (Wulong River, Minjiang River, Jiulong River) in Fujian Province tastes particularly good.

4. What is fake squid made of? I heard that squid can also be made artificially?

I heard it is made of plastic! It depends on the conscience of the merchants. Some conscientious ones use flour while some unscrupulous ones use plastic!

How to distinguish real and fake squid strips

1. With reliable packaging

In addition to identifying the squid shreds from the taste, color, and flavor, you should also see whether the product has reliable packaging, whether the packaging is marked with product information, production time, and manufacturer information. If all of these are there, generally this type of squid shreds are guaranteed. If they are all three-no squid shreds, then this type of squid shreds is not safe to eat at all.

2. Real squid shreds are very soft

Some squid shreds look hard, like wood chips, which may be because the squid shreds have been stored for a long time. These squid shreds are all stale. The harder they are, the less fresh they are, and they have no taste. Fresh squid shreds should feel soft and can be easily torn apart, and they should feel a little moist, which means they are still fresh.

3. The color of real squid is of course

Some squid shreds look very white and beautiful, usually they are bleached. These are all chemical treatments by manufacturers for some purpose. It is not recommended to eat this kind of squid shreds. Eating too much is harmful to the human body. In fact, the color of squid shreds is natural light yellow, and the skin is dark red. If it is grilled, the color is yellowish.

4. Real squid shreds are delicious

Good squid shreds taste like the freshness of big squid. If the squid shreds you eat don't taste fresh and fragrant, but taste like seasoning, then it may not be made of real squid shreds, or it may not be made of fresh squid shreds, and the seasoning has covered the taste. Therefore, compared to the sweet-tasting squid shreds, it is more recommended to eat the original charcoal grilled squid shreds.
