    Ah!
    I've never eaten octopus before...I have a problem with some of these animals...
    I only eat fish...
    I am sure this taste fantastic though, maybe I will try it someday and will broaden my taste buds to more sea delicacies...
    Thanks for sharing!

      I forgot to mention the seaweed ingredient. Make a large batch of the stuff for a party, yesterday. People at it all up! Was a hit!

        I made Tako Yaki for a party once it was so popular that there was no more tako (octopus). I started using other ingredients. For the tako poke could one substitute ahi tuna for tako. Sounds good to me!

          Yes...in fact there is a poke with ahi in it. It's got a different name. But, the ingredients would all be the same except for the ahi.

            Ok, you guys are having me re-thinking everything about those "sea animals" I can never even try to eat...
            I gues there is a time for everything.
            That sounds really good!

              I would love to fix up a batch fer ya...!! It is really tasty. I fixed up a large bowl of it for a get-together, a few weeks ago. Used over two pounds of tako (octopus). It was gone inside of two hours. People loved it; even those who are normally squeamish about tentacles....
