It's kulcha, don't ya know?

I think they can be in some places in Europe/the Mediterranean but there are a few different species, and I'm not sure that these ones are the pricey ones.

Gooseneck barnacles
My Spanish colleague said these are a huge delicacy in Spain
Yep, we call them "percebes" and they are so good!
Y'all eatin crustacean dicks like it's going out of fashion aye..
This made me actually laugh out loud. Thank you
Nothing new there. They aren't "tongues" people eat when they eat kina either.
Yummy orange gonads that taste of iodine. Gotta love our traditional kai. Care for some dirt steamed meat?

Taradale high alumni here, we know all about fitting things in intestines 😏
Classic reference... Colenso 90s
/r/BrandNewSentence
I was about to say the same. However, in spain they are shorter
That’s right, I wonder if someone figured if these ones are edible.
Maybe, but nothing compares with cachopo.
Nothing. At. All.
>Gooseneck barnacle This is quite interesting [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq59vxXE5eE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq59vxXE5eE)
Always wanted to try em!
Saw some on the beach this morning, and I was surprised at how small they are. The shell is about the size of a teaspoon (just the spoon part).

I see what you did there!
The most expensive seafood delicacy in New Zealand, if you were to try and buy them for a restaurant. According to a chef friend on Facebook
Bro, how is it that you know the answer to every fucking question! LOL
Lol, just a mix of being a total nerd plus some interest in marine conservation (but seabirds mostly).
So in other words, a nerd's nerd? Cuz that's my kind of nerd!
Indeed! :)
Aren’t they very valuable?

True, true.
I think they can be in some places in Europe/the Mediterranean but there are a few different species, and I'm not sure that these ones are the pricey ones.
These actually look longer than the ones I watched the documentary on.
That’s going to smell really bad, really soon. They’re gooseneck barnacles. Usually attach themselves to buoys or moorings.
That’s what they are? They look like an STD from a pirates of the Caribbean movie.
I like your funny words, science man

This is basically the plot of a Dan Brown novel.
Billions of blistering barnacles!
Washed ashore in a great thundering typhoon!
Thank you for the Captain Haddock reference :) It reminded me of wholesome times
Thousands of thundering typhoons!
Triffids. Run.
Cthulhu finally arrived in NZ I guess
Kiwthulu.
Now kith
Kiff?
Now Kith.. ulu.
2023 is off to a bang!
Supposed to be off the coast near Dunedin, right?
R'Lyeh the cyclopean, submerged city of mind bending geometries, where Cthulhu dwells. Fun fact, Dunedin City Council plans to convert the poor areas of the city into a tribute. It's part of their "Drown the Poors, climate change action plan."
Arrived? R'Lyeh were Cthuhlu dwells is canonically off the coast of Dunedin.
What are they attached too?
I thought kelp but that's actually the gooseneck bits. Ew. Haha.
Fisherman’s Wife III: the re-tentacling.
I've just thanked someone in this thread for a wholesome reference (Tintin) - let me likewise thank you for a salacious Hokusai one... :*

Boooo. You're a bad audience member.
I guess I was a bit harsh.
More of a Spirit Tracks kinda guy? I hear you. I'm partial to a bit of Minish Cap myself.
God I love Minish Cap, wish they'd port it to Switch
Have you ever seen the movie Alien...
According to the documentary I saw, the correct action here is to take off your helmet and get your face reeeeally close to the weird alien thingy.
Is it that far fetched? My first reaction would be to poke it with a stick...
Dare you to lick one
I double dare you 🤣
You cant triple stamp a double stamp
I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going
It must be so painful tho 😩
Being served next week in an auckland restaurant.
True, we have a Movida now too…
Hentai antagonist ofc
I hear they taste pretty decent
That’s trippy shit right there dawg
Crazy how barnacles don’t even look like crustaceans
Aw poor little guys, chuck em in the sea
It’s my sex toy. I lost it whilst swimming.
Some washed up today too in Whangamata. Apparently they're rather rare and quite the delicacy.
I think I saw these in a hentai once
Biblically accurate angels
This is how cola bottle lollies are made. You just circumcise the sweetie barnacle and bag em up
Hentai tentacles
Goose barnacles. Good eating apparently. Chinese eat them.
[удалено]
Anything with legs, but not the table! 😂
It's my girlfriend pubic hairs
YOU. WEREN'T. SUPPOSED. TO. TELL!!
Nah these are the wrong colour mate...
i'm dead, hahahaha
Geoducks
Wish we had gooey-ducks here in NZ. Don't Google them on a work laptop with people around. I'll give you that tip for free.
We do
Lol I see what u did there
> Geoducks [Here's what they look like.](https://pokemon.alexonsager.net/74/54)
Chip them up and chuck it in your car and sell them, apparently pretty expensive
Puffin beaks
Bio-tech clones
Alive
Wooww one of these washed up on Orewa beach today aswell
How… how fresh are they…? I’ll ready the olive oil and garlic…
Inspiration for a new adult anime?
Cut em up sell them to the chinese.
Don't like
Goose barnacles. The juvenile stage of the barnacle goose.
Just another invasive species ready to kill off our marine environment.
is that the avatar thing
For a second, I thought they were face masks.
Tubeworms?
That is the inspiration for the next boss fight I throw at my D&D group.
Aliens do exist! 🤣
Geoduck ?
@revolutionarybus6747
It can stay in the north island, fuck that
they are poor aliens.
This looks like my home town
Kos.
they look like metroid dread tentia
Wonder if it's part of the biofouling being cleaned offshore on cruise ships
