I got stung by one I kept in my fish tank once. 10/10 would not eat.

1/10 would not bang. Stings on genitals do not go together.

My grandparents used to take my mom and her siblings up to the coast when they were kids back in the 50s, and they'd eat sea urchins. He told me that they'd bring a loaf of Italian bread, some wine, and scoop the innards out of the sea urchins. Apparently, this is good eats.

My wife and I got married on that very same bluff overlooking the Atlantic, so naturally the story was re-told that day. Sea Urchins, however, were not on the menu at the reception ;)

Given how my hand felt after the sting, you definitely don't want one near your wing wang.

France, to me, seems like a country that has survived natural selection only in that every time it eats something that kills you, it remembers not to eat it again.

Still need to try those and geoducks.

We have a food cart/truck here that sells escargot. Usually in a white whine/garlic marinade.

I've employed this strategy before. Lets just say a well known movie with Lambs in the name was based on my story.
