Nope. Couldn't do it. Had squid one time by accident. It was served in some sort of red sauce and I thought it was peppers severed in a sauce. Put one in my mouth, chewed once and realized what it was. Swallowed it whole. I swear that tentacle spent the next minute or so trying to crawl back up my throat.

At my fairwell dinner, one of the Korean civilians brought in a dish of deep fried something or other. Whatever it was, it was good. Had several pieces of what I thought was chicken tenders. It wasn't. It was calamari and it was really good. Presentation, texture, and taste.
Was in Florida one year and we went to a seafood buffet at a hotel. One of the dishes was fried calamari and my wife got some and was eating it like she enjoyed it and asked what is this. I told her it was squid and she looked at what was left and wouldn’t eat any more of it. 🤣

That and this are both grilled octopus. Lemon, garlic, olive oil and parsley.
