Ah, the live baby squid. Being an animal lover, I was horrified when this dish was once brought to my table. I was dining with some white-shirted salarymen friends of mine and I'm certain that they ordered the dish for shock value. Well, I refused to eat the poor little blighters[not the salarymen] and asked about the possibility of taking them home as pets.
One of the guys I was with was the object of squid revenge. After dipping the head of the live squid into his soy sauce, the squid, like anything who'd just been dunked in a load of liquid might do, spat out the soy sauce and it ended up splattering on my friend's crisp, white shirt.
