-
man you should not eat that stuff :(some things you cant eat
-
thats just not wright >:(
-
I had them in restaurants, and they are delicious!
I caught one today at ambleside park and man was it cool looking :) I had never seen one before catching this one. But when I cut it open in the sink, it exploded in a swarm of worms of some kind; really grossed me out so I tossed it :-X :-X :-X
-
man you guys should let that stuff be >:( >:(
-
oh that worm stuff is its intestines. hey will, i thought ur going to ambleside today with ur mom. i didnt see no one with their mom going fishing.
-
they are one of the most common things to see on a dive...and when you see them, they are eating fish feces.....YUMMY
you actually only eat two small muscle strips inside the creature...not the entire creature...and since the muscles are small...I would leave the whole thing alone myself....never big on bottom feeders.
-
I have had it at chinese banquets and the muscle is considered the delicacy portion. The chinese also eat the other body section (no intestine parts that I know of). Tastes okay but kind of bland. Not really worth eating unless you just want to be adventurous and like to have Fear Factor like bragging rights.

Hey jighead, i was there! All i got was a sea cumber and a bunch of small sole(all released). BTW, will the greenling start biting more often soon? ;D
-
my bio teacher told me... they regenerate their internals after they poop it out.
-
btw, did anyone else notice some of the big words in that post? i'm impressed with myself.
;D ;D

In the Douglas Channel, the natives collect them and send the skins to Japan as they are used for medicinal purposes. There are only small strips of flesh on the inside of the sea cucumber that can be eaten...but they are so small that you won't even find it worth the effort of dealing with the mess they create.
-
those things are just plain nasssssssty.......... :-X :-X :-X :-X :-X :-X :-X :-X
yuck yuck yuck................i'd rather eat soft mushy warm carp meat that tastes slimy and muddy....
-

-
I shouldn't have read this post while eating my lunch :P :-X

Back in Japan, my friend's dad is a Sushi Restaurant owner.
He keeps a bucket of live sea cucues. He pours on the intestine juice on them, then they poo in unison. :o He collects ejected intestines and pickle 'em in rice vinegar & soy source and serve.. Saki drinkers love 'em. About C$10.00 each serving.
I couldn't eat it.
A cute small eel live inside a s.cucumber.
-
omg Luke, that's too graphic! :o :-\
So let me get this right, they pickled the intestine? or the intestine-less sea cucumbers?!
-

Yes, pickled intestine. ( Sunomono.)
I'm sure they don't poop everything, and don't know how long it takes to regenerate in order to poop again, though. ;D

i have worked many jobs but the one job i couldn't handle was working at a fish cannery butchering sea cucumbers. apparently there is a big market for this product. i lasted only two days because, first of all these critters really stank. especially when thousands have been sitting in totes for a long time. second, when you butcher them you actually split them in half, clip one end onto a clip board like cutting board and then you scrap the insides out. i never tasted sea cucumber but they way this company prepared it was drying it out and turning it into a beef jerky type product. as for me the best way to describe it is that it smelt like *&$%, and when you butchered these critters it was like splitting open someone's ##$@ and scrapping the inside out of it. not very appealing, hence i only lasted two days at that job.
some things were just not meant to be eaten.
