The entire body of a sea urchin is what researchers are now calling an “all-body brain,” with neurons that function as a brain throughout its anatomy.

So, when I see chefs open one up and eat it raw, they’re eating living brains?
Metal.

They are eating the roe. So genitals, eggs, and sperm.

These guys always made me feel uncomfortable. I would collect and eat them, and the remains would run away afterward.

Urchins are like the God-emperor in Dune, understood.

And it’s delicious with a quail egg dropped on top. Yummo!

Er…I…um…what‽

Most unnerving meal I’ve ever heard of

I, for one, would like to see the cafeteria menus in advance so parents can adjust their dinner menus accordingly. I don’t like the idea of my children having two all-body brain meals in one day.

It’s true! I would collect them in a pail from the tidal pools as a child. I would crack them open with whatever I had available and eat them, and the halves would still be running around on the ground after I discarded the rest.
The parts of urchin, the remains, they would skitter around and bunch up in one corner of the yard trying to get away like they didn’t realize they’d been eaten yet even though there was nothing left inside.

Could you do me a favor? Since you know what you’re looking for, will you see if you can find any videos of this? I looked, but either my keywords are bad, or there just aren’t any. I’m assuming it’s bad keywords. That’s absolutely wild.

I tried. This isn’t a very good video, but you can kinda see it’s still trying to crawl away after it’s been eaten at several points. I might have had 20 or so in a pile fresh out of the water and they were much more active. I hope this helps.
I like the fat ones. The long ones don’t taste good.

This is such a shit magazine. They are not “all brain”, its more like their brain is just scattered evenly throughout their body.

I suspect that all animal cells think and have experiences. But neural cells are specialized.

I am deeply, deeply disturbed by this. Thank you for sharing!
