Sorry, homie...no blood or sand in my vaj.
You can tell alot by a culture by the way it treats its animals. ..and what I see is not impressive.
I guess once you have actually ended the life of a living creature, you have a different outlook on life.
Yes, I get that its only a squid, but there is no reason to prepare a dish like this in the modern world. 5000 yrs ago...or stranded on an island...or after the impending zombie apocalypse...ok, fine.

That's similar to throwing potato slices into hot oil and saying "look it's dancing!"

Yeah its not alive, just reactions.
You can get this out of Horse Neck Clams at Sushi Restaurants, that's how you tell its fresh, you tap it with your chopstick and see if it reacts.
That squid bowl is pretty much considered a delicacy and on top you can only get it where the squid comes in fresh. Pretty rare thing to be served.
To people complaining this is inhumane trust me this is nothing close, and definitely is not, I would eat it and so would any curious tourist who's accepting to any type of food.
I know this guy wouldn't complain

ok i went a did a little research on the exact anatomy of squids. there brain is located right above their beak and pretty much between there eyes. they are NOT quickly killing these squids. from the first video you can see there is easily 1/2 inch left above the eyes, so no they are NOT killing these squids quickly. kind of makes this seem a lot more messed up to me. its starting to slightly remind me of the people in asia who break open monkey skull and eat their brains while the monkey is still alive/ dying

I also believe living in a community of mostly whites..... and my dad being a sushi chef. When people try things they end up liking it... True within my friends that are WHITE they said no then my dad said try it they did and they liked it......

).Better avoid those salads then, brah.
Seriously, if you can't appreciate the gustatory delight of raw foods, I feel bad for you.

Well, I can't argue with that.
But I'm not a Jew, so I'll continue to ascribe to this:
"13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”
14 “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.”
15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.” " -- Acts 10:13-15
