Giant Squid
This and this are, aargh, the stuff of nightmares. But it's going to make me feel even happier every time I eat squid from now on: 'you may be the king of your little ocean, but here on the land all you can do is be served with chips and garlic.'

You mean to say that vinegar-soaked urinal cakes are not a delicacy where you come from? I think I knew this - I will content myself with thinking that I am happy eating the delectable relatives of deep sea monsters. As I would eat a caterpillar but not a butterly.
[re: anonymous comments. Hope this works now.]
Or, I suppose, as I would eat a dormouse but not a capybara.
Eat your nightmare and realise it's harmless (and sometimes delicious).
I would not see a monster in the squid unless discussed a qiant squid of large proportions and a human being of proportions of his own living in the same environment - in the deep blue sea. But even though not as this all sounds a bit unreal.
From a different point of view however, these species may see the monsters in us who in the end eat them and therefore are only poore captives of our food caprices that we have, and so the unfortunate squid may convey talks about the man, the Lord of the Sea, and call him Ahab. Does not this sound more feasible?
