I haven't tried it, but I would, as long as the whale wasn't endangered.

And if you were half way through the meat, and then were told it was endangered, would you spit it out?

I recently ate whale and it was actually very good.

I bought a chunk of whale meat the other day, but forgot about it and it passed the expiration date. I had to toss it this morning. (It was for raw consumption...)

Fancy that!

As raw meat, what do you add, or do you simply eat it and enjoy the natural flavours?

It`s eaten with soy sauce and a bit of ginger on top. I`m allergic to ginger, so have no idea if that enhances the flavor.

I'd be very suprised if it did not as it's very strong..
