Hell, I might even respond to quality squid spam.
That's the worst thing about spam --99.9999999% is trying to sell you things that you wouldn't even consider purchasing.
But, quality squid... mmm....squid....

I think PZ Myers put you on their list. He's a known squid-lover.

Dried shredded squid is a fantastic snack food. You need good teeth, though, it's like jerky. The stuff I used to get in Taiwan had slightly-sweet, slightly-hot flavor.

Dried squid shred is a popular bar snack in Korea; nothing like a tall cool OB Beer and a bowl a dried squid.

What is it with spam lately? It seems like every blog has been hit in the past few weeks.

I see someone's already made a P.Z. Myers joke. Ah well . . . .

I, for one, welcome out spamming shredded squid overlords.

As said above, dried shredded squid is a great snack in all the East Asian countries like China, Korea and Japan. I used to buy it at the grocery store in Japan along with my milk, eggs, and sushi. They serve it in 'snack bars' along with the drinks. Chewy and scrumptious. But I don't think Majikthise wants to buy it in wholesale quantities.

I actually like that stuff. Have been having problems finding a reliable source down here because they don't seem to believe that there are any Asians on my hilltop.
If you go into business, I'll be glad to buy from you.
