My favorite tinned octopus so far | Canned Fish Files Ep. 163

Are octopuses that smart? Don’t think about it.
This fancy tin of octopus is pretty expensive. But that didn’t stop me from ripping it open and scarfing it down in under 9 minutes. And I don’t want to spoil it too much, but I feel quite fancy and expensive now, myself. This conferral of fanciness unto me was this noble cephalopod’s final gift. Witness the gifting.

On test:

that’s so cool that they don’t even have to put their name on the box how do you like that right i’ve been so impressed with ABC Plus and they’re like a part of the uh Jose Gourmet group i feel like I can just jump right into review without some kind of [ __ ] YouTube premise or hook you know we can just get right into it yeah octopus um this is like a picture of an octopus it looks like um like a a subway map turned into a picture of an octopus or something and this um red dot here is actually like a sticker that I think indicates the caldera sauce which is kind of like a stewed up tomato sauce um so this isn’t like the eyeball of an octopus right right and God bless um you know they’ve written octopus in many different languages around here but um you know they don’t they don’t clutter up their dang box with a bunch of like stories and stuff that I have to read oh by the way these are $25 um product of Portugal yeah yeah ingredients uh-huh yeah the sauce has got tomato pulp onion garlic red pepper and chili and salt yeah yeah yeah otherwise nothing interesting nothing to confuse or like you know convolute the uh story or the situation you know just like Yeah yeah i got to love it kind of plain cardboard what am I doing here okay yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah seems good yeah yeah tin nerds there’s some info back there for you gosh I wonder what it’s going to be like i wonder what it’s going to be like yeah i don’t know oh nice violent crack sort of uh the sauce burps out of here enthusiastically and away we go oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy um yeah yeah smells like octopus in here yeah yeah um set this and Oh my god let’s just Here we go this arm piece here oh his little suckers yeah son of a freaking peanut man uh God it’s so tender wow wow wow uh I mean that’s the first thing you know that’s the first thing if you’re used to octopus being chewy you get that stuff at the sushi restaurant you know there’s like octopus nigi you know and it’s you’re chewing it and chewing it and chew it no this is nothing like that m a little piece of tomato was kind of stuck to that one that was very nice um you know I I on the channel here I think I’ve said a lot in the past that I just don’t really get into tomato sauces you know sardines and tomato sauce the way they tend to come i’m not like way into them but I’m kind of into this Colorado sauce as I’ve had it in u a couple of different ways we had them with those scallops recently yeah okay look at this tiny little tentacle here huh the tentacle the little sucker bits kind of Yeah you see it they kind of pop off in your mouth once uh you start the chewing huh crazy crazy the flavor of octopus itself it has its own flavor but it’s definitely very like mild you know it’s nothing like a fishy taste you know um really octopus to me is kind of a um uh a texture game yeah yeah yeah this is this is really nice uh don’t say it’s just nice come up with something i’m going to Japan in um a little while and I hope I get a chance to eat some octopus over there there are places where they have like octopus right in the bay and they come up and then they like boil them and you can just buy a bag and eat it with a toothpick and um you know golly it’s just it’s like nothing else i don’t know i don’t know oh every bite is like it’s so impressive so impressive this is one of those cans where you just can’t you can’t believe you’re just having this right out of a can like I was just sitting in my apartment minding my own business and all we’ve got in the kitchen is like you know jars of pasta sauce and like uncooked spaghetti and like you know some yogurt peanut butter and Wonderbread you know just a bunch of crap and uh right under my nose pop this tin boom gourmet times all right relax buddy hey if today’s newly joined Deans Lister our ultra premium tier on the Patreon is Don Piano and our new Fishy Freaks which is our ultra hot stuff penultimate tier are Britney Nuen Alrad and Olivia Weiss thanks back to the show really love the way those suckers kind of pop off and I’m just chasing them around my mouth as I chew these guys up yeah [Music] yeah people say octopus are real smart you know maybe I believe that you know as far as sea creatures go most fish seem to be pretty stupid but octopus aren’t fish but uh oh man you know if I was gonna stop eating beasts just because I thought they were smart or nice or something I’d stop eating pigs right it might be a long time after I’m gone but I can’t imagine a human civilization where we think that eating animals of any kind is um like morally very wrong to the to the point that we just don’t do it there’s already people on planet Earth that do that feel that way and you know practice that but uh you know I can see all of society being that way do you just imagine the way that like societies change over hundreds to hundreds of years you know i don’t know not today Satan thanks for watching i’ll see you next time bye-bye [Music]
