Not Portuguese but a friend in Australia is trying to set up a gooseneck barnacle and seaweed farm so I am wondering just how delicious it really is (and whether it is worth the price) :D I like your photography posts - have you checked out some of the photography groups and contests yet?

Ahahaha they are probably a bit overpriced, but the taste is great! I did joined some of the contests, loving the photography community here! Ps- as a curiosity, "percebes" literally translated in english is... "understands"! We sometimes say it in english as a joke :)

I read the story about how fishermen lose their lives trying to harvest them from those dangerous areas, so I guess the price is as much for the risk as it is for the taste? Do they really taste like lobsters?

Thanks for the extra info about the meaning of the word, it does make for a funny joke :D

I wouldn't say lobster... it's hard to describe it! It tastes like sea :)
