Its no big deal for them to loose an arm - it grows back on Squids

A musuem had a specimen in London on display, and while preserving it they asked a seafood chef for his opinion. Apparently those squid are so chock-full of ammonia, you might as well be drinking piss :P

No luck there then

It's fine by me. Although I enjoy seafood, I'm not particularily a fan of calamari.
