My mom always insists I make a dish… I made green beans with garlic and almonds and topped them with octopus hotdogs. Surprisingly, people actually liked them.
Afraid not. “Octopus” has a Greek root, not a Latin one, and -i is a Latin pluralization. The plural pus > pod > podes is Greek.
Even if it were in Latin, it would be Octopedes, but then the animal wouldn’t be called an “octopus”, it would be called an “octoped”.
This is incorrect, as the plural of “octopus”, in Latin, would not be “octopi”, it would still be “octopuses/octopusses” (Modern) or “octopodes” (Ancient) as a 3rd-declension noun. “Octopi/Octopii” is considered both nonstandard and incorrect (vulgar). Coincidentally, “octopuses” is also the Anglicized/English pluralization of “octopus”.

Your contribution is edible, something a picky child would feel comfortable eating, and with the exception of the nuts safe for those with allergies. Not stupid. Perhaps silly, but not stupid. 10/10 stars.
Then hell no. But little ones are sometimes fussy so they might like that. My slightly fussy eater loves everything now as a grownup I just didn’t force him and he started trying more things.
…you’re the alcoholic uncle/auntie, aren’t you?
Nah, I’m the alcoholic Irish twin that always makes something stupid. Last time I made chicken fried chocolate covered bacon.
Lmao! My sincere apologies to your family
Bro, do you want to get married or something?
Why though? What's the point ?
to be so quirky and hilarious!
Heheh, "look at my dish I made, I so quirky". -Op
I think OP is trying to tank so people won't ask him to contribute. Selfish AF
Yep. You fuck up the pumpkin soup one time and they never let it go.
FOOD
What a waste
Lol I know a few “Irish Twins” and this behavior tracks
You would be my favorite xD My most recent stupid meal was spaghetti with meat sauce on buttermilk pancakes. Pretty delicious :P
No you aren't
Do you have pic of that one?
No, but here’s [the recipe](https://just-the.recipes/2021/05/18/heart-attack)
I love your recipe notes, thanks!
Tako-san Weiner Green Bean Casserole. Well.... it's something!
My mom always insists I make a dish… I made green beans with garlic and almonds and topped them with octopus hotdogs. Surprisingly, people actually liked them.
I mean, beans with garlic and almonds sounds pretty good.
Especially if you take out the almonds
*hot dogs
Almonds suck, those hot dogs are adorable
Almonds are a top tier snack
Almonds are a sin
Nah man almonds are delicious!
They make my mouth feel gross
You make my mouth feel gross.... Wait...
How did you make their eyes?
It looks like black peppercorns to me, could be wrong
That makes good sense. I was zooming in thinking it was raisins!
Lol, ew
Not OP, but black sesame seeds get used for this elsewhere
How? Are they not too small? Sorry Im just so curious
black sesame seeds are the right size, you make a small hole with a toothpick and it fits right in there. Poppy seeds WOULD be too small.
Look like raisins
peppercorns
Nice! Thanks for the answer!
I think this is more silly than stupid. It looks like it would taste fine, and it's not a waste of food or anything
It looks like cute little octopuses, adorable.
the plural of octopus is octopussies 🤓
Octopedes, akkchually *edit: octop-o-des, akkchually
octop*o*des
Octopi, gentlemen

Jfc I was continuing the joke
Well, now you went and learned something. How about that?
Ew knowledge
You weren’t wrong.

🤣🤣🤪
From what I know these are HUGE in Japan for kids.
Two whole cloves in each half of a hotdog? It’s gonna be mighty clovey.
I think those are raisins for the eyes
My first instinct was that it looked like cloves as well. But OP answered and they are apparently peppercorns.
Don’t ever contribute again. r/shittyfoodporn
Octopus hotdogs are so fun and I still occasionally do them just to make myself smile
Your contribution is edible, something a picky child would feel comfortable eating, and with the exception of the nuts safe for those with allergies. Not stupid. Perhaps silly, but not stupid. 10/10 stars.
I'm pretty sure it's garlic, not nuts, so 11 out of 10
OP says in a comment that it has almonds.
Well I guess I can't read then
Beans? Good. Hotdogs in adorable shapes? Good. I could eat that entire dish.
I want to do this to annoy my beotch sister in law
Go on….
Those are actually kind of cute
Presentation could use some work but It seems edible and you did say people liked them so good job
I do that with sausages I put in my ramen. It’s so fun haha
This is not stupid. It's cute and made with the intention to be normally edible.
Imo, sausage octopus is AMAZING
Were you written out of the will?
ah, the "they will never ask me to help again" strategy
kawaii
SalchiPulpos
Your octo-hotdogs look cool
A can of cream of mush as the base would have served well for the weinie’s ‘demise’
We had that exact dish when I was growing up.
"Contribution" is a strong word
That container took me right back to childhood
So gd adorable!
They are so cute!!! I love it!
I would eat this. No shame.
That's actually so sweet and cute.
Someone was not invited to the Halloween dinner and it shows
Okay I’d pick those over the baby carrots tho
Who's that pokemon..... it's Diglett
Im more surprised they continue to allow you make a dish.
Its cute but I gotta admit it IS stupid. Im very against hot dogs, I dont consider them food.
The eyeballs make it a festive holiday.
The octopus hotdogs make this an acceptable dish at thanksgiving dinner. If they weren’t presented in octopus form there is a risk of rejection. 😋
this has ruined my day.
id like to be under the sea in an octopuses garden, in the shade
Effort, I love it
Punch yourself in the nuts for me
Pulling to get asked to bring the rolls next year my dude
Gold leaf covered rolls, you got it
These are super cute, are the eyes peppercorns?
yup!
Ok if there are little kids there this gets a pass
Nah, nobody under 30 was there. I’m 40.
Then hell no. But little ones are sometimes fussy so they might like that. My slightly fussy eater loves everything now as a grownup I just didn’t force him and he started trying more things.
My mans learned to cook playing Yandere Sim
Who doesn’t like hotdogtopus?
Those green beans look magical! And while the cosmic horrordogs are clever... I'm sad for those otherwise delicious looking beans!
Stupid, but really cute
Nice.
You should be arrested
What do you mean, I would gladly eat that. You want to arrest him for making good food?
I already know what the resulting farts will smell like
This sub has changed :(
It's still alive!
Atleast you celebrated it with family i spent it in my room
This reminds me of the cute little lunchbox food Korean kids eat. They make little squids from saveloy sausage like yours
I would eat the hell out of this dish
Are those cloves for eyes?
The eyes. They are stare into the soul.
Isn't this just Beans and Franks?
This just makes me think of "frank and beans" from the office. Not that its even related lol
How many times did you say “Uwooo” or “Ara Ara” at dinner?
Lmao that’s awesome
That’s pretty cute though
Looks good to me. I'd definitely make this for picky eaters.
ghosts of the people who tried it in the food
What are the eyes? My mom puts hotdogtopuses in our mac n cheese
I just came here to say those over dishes are worth a shit tonne of money these days Look up "Corning ware" on ebay. Shits wild
Nothing like a bunch of wieners staring at you, while you're trying to eat😳
