Myth or no myth, the barnacles are delicious

(when fresh)

How would you describe their taste? Because having tried fresh oysters (which I found to be awful) I imagine them just tasting like the ocean (not a compliment).
Aha - it’s that expression I use to describe it: “it tastes like sea” - or ocean, if you will.

Subtle and delicious.

If they tasted like ocean, they probably weren't that fresh.
Plus they have the largest penis to body size ratio in the entire animal kingdom. They’re practically all-penis.
