Funny you should mention that Jim, I've often wondered how they measured on the cholesterol scale. Had no idea they were high??? Always knew shellfish were way up there (w/shrimp being a strong first),, but figured squid were OK. Still find it unbelievable that ANYTHING from the ocean should contain or cause high cholesterol.
I agree with Jim on the cleaning too, basically the only time I keep them in tube form is if I plan on stuffing them. Other than that, I strip them too....sooooooo much easier that way.
