Squigs, a particularly nasty eel species originating from the planet of Chandrila, were a well-known local delicacy. These creatures were often featured in the Chandrilan Squigs beverage, where the light-colored eels were placed into the drink to produce an effervescent effect.
In 5 BBY, Senator Mon Mothma had grown tired of squigs and requested her drink be served without the eel at a gathering held at the Chandrilan Embassy. Her spouse, Perrin Fertha, still found them enjoyable and took her squig, adding it to his own beverage, while remarking that she once enjoyed them. Mothma replied by stating her ability to feign enjoyment had diminished.
