Street Calamares




We have a lot of street foods.Fishballs,isaw,kwekwek and a lot more. And the newest of them all is Calamares.
I have already eaten a lot of this fried squid because I like the smell of it and the site..Yummy... very apetizing.I always buy when I see them.But have you wonder where these squids came from, and why are they soo cheap?

Well, I watched a show last weekend and I found out a lot of facts about this famous street food.
Contrary to the popular belief, the squid does not contain formaldehyde.However, it contains much more than that!

Mike enriquez's program,"Imbestigador" tackled Calamares. The program found the site where this squids are mass distributed. He said, the squid are imported from China and Spain. It's sold at 3-4 pesos per ring which is very cheap.

The prize of frozen squid is 60 pesos per kilo, very low compared to the prize of fresh squid which is 200 per kilo.

It's preserved with a certain "bacteria" that cannot be killed even if the squid is boiled or fried. It remains in the human
body.

After watching this episode and knowing these facts, I am not attracted to the smell and site of Calamares alongthe streets anymore.

Let me ask you this...."How many rings of Calamares have you already eaten?".

The one trouble is the fact it really is bare essentials, and can't be upgraded, except for growing the resistance amounts.
