# I ate still living pieces of octopus when I was there.
It's basically a plate of writhing tentacles. The suckers stick to your tongue while you're chewing them.

# The only reason I could stomach it
was when I realised that the tentacles weren't connected to a brain anymore,
so there wasn't any unnecessary suffering.

Also, octopus is usually chopped up, so it wasn't a bizarre or circuitous way of killing it.

# Cephalopods occupy more biomass than primates. They're the dominant species.
I won't eat dolphins, whales, great apes, elephants etc, but I'm more than happy to chow down on some squid or some octopus.

Anyways, they usually only live for a few months, so they don't get to utilise their intelligence past basic survival.
