Squigg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the fish. For the Warhammer creatures, see squig.

Squiggs are a fictional species of fish, invented by the American comic book writer and artist Keno Don Rosa (but based on an original passing mention in a story by Carl Barks).

Squiggs are fairly small fish that are typically eaten oolated, which is also a term coined in the Barks story. Conserved oolated squiggs are fairly cheap and wholesome food but don't taste particularly good, and smell worse. Donald Duck and Gladstone Gander once took part in a competition organised by a company producing oolated squiggs, where the grand prize was an ocean liner cruise. Donald won the grand prize and Gladstone won a year's supply of oolated squiggs. For more details of this competition, see Oolated Luck.
