What about octopus?
Not yet. Too bad I screwed-up when I bought my plane ticket. Otherwise I'd have been in Spain trying it out. I think it's not much of a stretch to eat. I love squid and suspect they are quite similar.
Spot the tiger

I don't eat meat but that's still funny

Yeah, I sorta felt the same way when my wife showed-up with it. But I realized NOT eating it would make no difference, so I might as well give it a try.
Fair enough.
I maintain that I found a tiger though.
But to eat proper octopus at a reasonable price you must be in Galicia, preferably southeast. Too many complications! :)

After much discussion from our panel of judges, they decided you should be awarded a pointless trophy too.

Oh, I thought this would be thread with a story about a tiger named Spot.

Funny you should say that.
In Thai, with the exception of lions, all big cats are called [something] tiger. For example, leopards are called 'star' tigers, or, sometimes 'spotted' tigers.
But, if you want a story about a tiger named spot, I'm happy to oblige.
There once was a man from America who traveled to Thailand. Just as he was about to leave, he ate a tiger. The tiger's name was spot.
the end.

So, the beer cans also have a tiger on them in one possible interpetation.

Is that some crispy-fried tiger in the bowl? A well-known aphrodisiac.
Congratulations!!!!
Indeed, it is crispy tiger 'jerky'.
It is a very rare treat. Dried tiger meat that is then fried and eaten with cold-cold beer.
It has a bit of a smoky/gamy falvor. Not exceptionally delicious, but good just the same.
Here is a short list of animals I've had the opportunity to eat since I've been in Thailand:
tiger
elephant
lizard
snake
a variety of crispy fried bugs
possibly rat
boar (This was really good)

Is this what it's come to kleelof, trolling vegetarians and conservationists on a chess site?
Pathetic.
Sounds like an April fool's joke to me . Since Tigers are endangered/protected I doubt seriously they serve them in restaurants anywhere .

April 1 was over a week ago. I suspect the actual animal eaten was dog.
I see him. He's at Augusta, GA.
