Octopus

Many people are surprised to find out that octopus actually has a very bland, chewy texture. Most people expect it to taste very fishy since it comes from the water, but octopi have a very different flavor that is closer to chicken or clams than any fish. An octopus has soft and delicate meat that can chew easily. It has a tender texture like a chicken and a lobster. Even though octopus meat is usually mistaken calamari which is a squid, squid meats are hard, chewy and tough to eat.
Octopus has been a popular food item in East Asia, Spain, Greece and other countries for centuries, and recently, it has gained popularity in the U.S. and beyond.
Octopus meat is a good source of iron, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and selenium. It is also rich in vitamin C, vitamin A as well as several B vitamins and Omega 3 essential oils.
We export Octopus in bulk quantities to our clients.
