Found this via Pharyngula (http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2006/01/tool_of_heretics.php):

This has to be the silliest kitchen tool even made.

Insert a hot dog, and use the eyes to hold the hot dog in place. Slide the holder down, sliceing your hot dog into 8 perfect tentacles. Remove the frankfurter and you have an edible octopus, eyes and all!

This is a very high quality tool. The bright colors and fun results make this a great gag gift for the kids.

They look more like pelegic octos more than the normal octos you get on the continental shelf...
