A rocks that you can eat. Well as with the eggs. Like a spice.
It can be used as a extra taste in any food. (like truffles)
People love to drink it as a cocktail:

That's fucking disgusting. It's the secreted lining from the digestive tract of a whale, who the hell would consume that.

Well, people have been eating it for many thousands of years, it is probably safe. I can't say I would ever order it, but I wouldn't be upset if I found it was used in something I ate. I kind of outgrew being squeamish. Originally Posted by Rustedsaint

It's not about the animal getting hurt or not, if it produces something valuable (Amergris in this case) then you can bet someone(s) is going to try and exploit it. That's why it's illegal. Originally Posted by Yunru

OT: No thanks, I'm not a nasty rich person who has to try and show everyone how extra rich they are by eating exotic garbage.
Also, it isn't a rock (?) Not sure where you got that from. Edit: Ahh, you're looking at old ambergris. The fresh stuff kinda looks like earwax.Last edited by Phookah; 2018-02-17 at 06:23 PM.

Never had the occasion to try it. Surely do if offered.

yeah but I can remember back years before discovering how it tasted that it was considered one of those gross foods kids would barf at the thought of eating, namely due to shows like earthworm jim giving it a bad name. Originally Posted by Bigbazz

Its kinda the other way araund. Its made by a whale eating a to big squid (similar like pearls are made) and then ejecting the big mass out. After this it soaks in water till the chemicals and bacteria change it into this thing. Originally Posted by chazus
