I don't usually give content warnings, but you probably don't want to read this if sentient animals being cooked alive is too much.

The octopus thing reminds me of a pretty common custom in a lot of BBQ places here. Honestly, I've only seen it in Korean/Japanese BBQ joints, but that's probably due to me going there a lot. Anyways, they would put an octopus in a bowl, and cut off its legs one by one. The legs would be cooked on the grill and seasoned while the octopus watched. When we finished eating the legs, the body of the octopus would finally be placed on the grill and cooked alive.

The whole process takes around 10 minutes. It honestly didn't taste that good.

I don't have a strong way to end this post, but I feel like somehow stopping specifically this might be a good idea.
