Well, in NSW the chilli marinade on the Coles marinated baby occies was
delicious. Its totally different here in QLD, not sure Coles even stock
it anymore. It was disappointing to say the least. We thought we were
getting baby occies last night in the occy salad. I had already asked
the waiter if they were bbq'ed or if they were slimy

I don't like
slimy. Bbq'ed has a cooked chicken type texture and dry on the outside.
Anyways, the occy wasn't a baby as such (and it wasn't slimy), it was
all tentacles (again unexpected) cut into pieces about 2 inches long.
The tentacles were thicker and larger than a baby but not really as big
as most occies I have seen.
