Dried octopus makes for a good snack, but they're also excellent for barbeques.

I think so too. It's also good when you cook them directly on the stove.

Octopusses not octopi. The word is Greek not Latin.

Um, octopuses don't actually have tentacles, they have arms. Just saying.

The correct plural term for octopus is octopodes.
