- Gooseneck barnacles are one of the most expensive seafoods in the world. Just 1 pound can cost over $100 in Spain and Portugal, where the barnacles are considered a delicacy. But getting your hands on them is harder than it seems. The job comes with serious risks - and even the possibility of death. So why are these barnacles so difficult to harvest? And is that what makes them so expensive?

Interesting
I wasn't . I was fascinated about them eating the barnicles
Lol I don't think many people were worried... Those weren't big waves....
@Zack Fulton key words "for anyone"

the risk of death really improves the taste of those barnacles. also, i love how they talk about the care that is taken to avoid damage to other nearby creatures... just as he jabs a knife into a mass of barnacles and proceeds to twist the whole mass loose from the rock.

Then he walks all over millions of them probably smashing and killing them all.

Pretty good, apart from them bring flesh scavengers
Maybe eat dead sailor's flesh
Oooo
Why can't these be farmed like oysters?
I remember I found these on the beach as little girl, I brought them home and thought they were going to live . I remember the rancid smell in my bucket after a few days. My parents knew I was a nerd and liked to explore so they allowed me to rock on, I thought I saved them 😂 because they washed ashore , I researched for years to find out what they were , as an adult I felt bad for not just throwing them back into the ocean
@@NB-yu4lj lol we live we learn, they live we kill em , whups
You tried your best to help a living thing and that's what matters. You were a good kid and I bet you're a good adult too 😊
its okay as an adult you do much much worse things you never think about anyway
we forgive you
- the barnacles of your childhood
Fun fact: you had no idea what gooseneck barnacles were before you clicked on this video.
I knew before but I didn’t know it is a sea food let alone a delicacy
I did, and ive seen them for sale
i lived in Alaska for over half my life. We ate dam near everything that came out of the water- seaweed to barnacles.
Everybody knew before they clicked because of the thumbnail..
Meh I'm Portuguese so I I've eaten this since I was a little kid. I just hope it doesn't get too popular and people overharvest because these organisms play a pivotal role in the food chain
The person who found out we could eat this thing must spent years starving. I would have seen this and never thought we can actually eat it
😄😄very true
Indeed XD
Just like how they discovered cow's milk XD
@@GabrielTobing Uh cow milk makes sense...
@@FitnessGuru91 Till post nut clarity hit him XD
you cna pretty much eat anything from the sea. i dont think it was so diff to figure out :P
For anyone not aware the most priced barnacles in EU are the ones coming from the Costa Da Morte (The Coast of Death) in Galicia (Spain) and right now you need to pay about 48€ for 500 grams but they can go higher than 70€. If they're from Cantabria however they can be worth (depending on season and class) up to +100€ per Kg. Just last year 5 people died while harvesting them.
yeah its no joke to get them am from Galicia and are delicious.
@@rebootcomputa hey I'm curious .. what do you do with the shells after eating? Throw away?
I would pay for someone to mail me a box of the discarded shells, to do some art with...
@@catland88 yeah I just throw them away you dont want to open them they are used like the handle to eat the food from. I live in the UK now so I havent had percebes in years.
the price depends on the country you live in , for example it cost about 5 to 7$ in my country if you're lazy
if you're not that lazy you can go to rocky coast and pick them , its not that hard to harvest as they picturize it in this video
@@slattbiz talking about Spain here. And it's illegal to just go out and pick them without a permit. On top very dangerous.
"Tastes like three different other things that vary vastly in expensiveness"
I find the harvesting of these barnacles both very satisfying and unsettling.
You're not alone
Tyrpohobia, I hope this is how it's spelled
@@vladmitran939 I have a very serious case of this phobia but these barnacles didn't trigger anything.
@@vladmitran939 yet you still spelt it wrong 😂
I'm from Spain and I live near areas where people harvest them for a living. The kind of harvesting you see in this video is the very easy kind, probably to get better close-ups of the process. It's not strange for harvesters to do their jobs while having to hold onto the rocks so a rogue wave doesn't take them.
I never thought to myself "why are goose barnacles so expensive?" Wow. You learn something new everyday....
I didn’t even know what they are
I didn't know people even eat Barnacles!
@@siddarthans37 bruh, people eat anything. It’s crazy. I can’t believe if the subject of goose barnacles ever comes up in my life time I’ll actually be conversational on the subject thanks to this video. 😂😂😂😂😂
@@austinr6974 😂😂😂 Good for you bro...I am also happy that I've learnt something today on weird looking foods
@@siddarthans37 I didnt know know about this gooseneck, but barnacles are pretty common as a street food in Asian countries.
I have tried it once in Laxe, Spain. I wouldn't say it's something I would miss eating or recommend to my loved ones to eat as an item of bucket list. 🙂
That job literally can’t be boring, isn’t there some kind of equipment harvesters can use to make harvesting safer
100% but they don't show that to the camera
I just feel like there is a lot of potential in upgrading the harvesting tools.
In Portugal the tool used is a long and sharp round tipped spade, very efficient and a must considering the limited time to harvest before the tide returns.
Yeah and giving them a substrate that they could easily be released from.
Didn’t you hear him? This is skilled labor, not anyone can just go out and get a crowbar and a knife!
In my country we use pliers and vice grips. Get the job done.
Not to mention safety equipment. A helmet and life jacket would help
The most dangerous part is seeing that dude chisel away with that knife.
surely
Categorically
i wonder how many times it slipped

so... do you think a floor scraper and shovel would do the job more efficiently?
I'm Portuguese from the islands of the Azores. I know how some people who do this job and I have heard the dangers of it, plus of course when we go visit we do buy it directly, not just this but more. We do love our seafood 😊
When I've been to Azores, it was the first and so far only time I've tried these (on Terceira), they really are delicious.
A beautiful place to visit as well.
Ack. Seeing all those barnacles gives me the goosebumps.
Why is everything “so expensive”? They should do a series about “so cheap” lol
You think people want to know the slave labor, environmentally unfriendly science, lies, and other sad things that have resulted in "cheap"...
Economies of scale
Dollar tree.
So cheap: potatoes
Every episode would be filmed in china
I’ve harvested these before. What you saw in this video is an easy catch. They get much tougher.
probably so the camera crew can safely record
@TFB nah, easy
Yeah.. Looks like skydiving hard, or free hand mountain climbing hard..😳

I went camping on Vancouver Island, yes came across a coastline with tons of this stuff. It takes some skills, and lots of labour, to extract these barnacles.... We took some back & cooked them, taste more like snails to me, nothing like crab or lobster. I've eaten all kinds of seafood, but to me these not as great as suggested... They may be popular in Europe, but I haven't seen these in local restaurants in Vancouver... maybe because taste not what's hyped up to be...
Had to look this up after watching the short! This is so interesting!
I finally understand what Squidward meant when he called a customer barnacle head

Fascinating stuff! And can we all just appreciate how pleasant and soothing the narrator's voice is.
No
I’ve never seen a lug wrench polished to bare metal from use. That pretty neat to see the wear over the years on his tools
Whoever made this needs a serious geography lesson. Vancouver Island and Vancouver are completely different places.
When my parents lived in Portugal they went to a market on the week and bought this to eat. They’re apparently amazing, never personally tried.
As Portuguese I can assure that you missed an unique experience. As long as they were really good, of course.
don't taste like fish or lobster at all. it's completely different. it's like saying a potato tastes like rabbit.
If youve never tried, why did u say amazing?
@@fynkozari9271Said "apparently", meaning the person doesn't know, but it's what they heard.
They're the facing best Jesus fkn christ
I had never heard of a gooseneck barnacle before but I always wondered why they are so expensive.
A colleague of mine from Vigo, Spain cooked them for us once. Absolutely delicious!
In Spain we call these Percebes and it’s seen as a delicacy for sure. Didn’t know countries outside the Iberian peninsula ate them though 👍
One of the best dishes here in Spain for sure
I had some in País Vasco in the summer and they were divine and I'm not even a huge seafood fan. From what I see of these guys collecting them, they are no where near as dangerous as the ones on the Iberian peninsular. I've saw the divers in action and man those Vascos are crazy!
Don't mind me but it dosent loook appetising in its raw form
@@anareaforakinglikeme3029 Heh, like with most seafood, the first people to eat one must have been really desperate to think that could be food. But when you get over the looks, boy are they tasty...
@@SidSLI similar to shrimps. They look like horrible disgusting insects but boy are they tasty.
In Korea, we call these "gu-book-son거북손(turtle's hand)". These are not expensive food in Korea. you can buy them within 30dollars per kg.
Oh yummy I love goo-k son
Yeah this lady's exaggerating big time
interesting im southern chinese and my grandfather calls them "dog's paw"
good to know, now you can sell it internationally
Hi
What a dramatic and heroic scene.
I love these! I eat them all the time when I’m with my cousins!
(I’m from Portugal, so they are quite common)
She said it: "it tastes like the ocean", that's what I thought... It never tasted like lobster or wtv to me 😂
Yeah dead lobsters.
@Nat L1 you mean just salty water
@@keithburchett6512 barnacles eat minerals and planktons
They're f'n amazing. It's more like scallops then lobster. But better then both and I like lobster and scallops
I’ve never had them but just asked my grandmother what gooseneck barnacles taste like and she said. “ tastes like cum”
Definately can't eat those no matter how expensive this could be,it gives me goosebumps just by seeing it!!!
Trypophobia
Well it is named after goosenecks so
Look up geoduck clams. Even funkier looking stuff.
Ewww, right? Looks like alien...and weird..and etc
@@campeador94 that's definitely not trypophobia lol
Thank you for this very informative video about something I knew nothing about!!! And having seen here yesterday in videos of people cleaning sea turtles that had these barnacles on them!!!
The taste comes from the souls of those that try to harvest, giving it the unique flavor of extreme averageness.
I'm no gooseneck barnacle expert, but I feel like harvesting them would be easier if they had more efficient tools and not a pocket knife and flathead screwdriver.
Yeah
not to mention a rock that had maybe something like a walkway or gangplank that someone might suddenly find on the rock
You sound like a pro. Are you really no gooseneck barnacle expert or are you just saying that to not blow your cover?
Yeah, you are right. My aunt in law family lives in Wales and when we visit them they let us use this spring tool like thing that's easier to pry em up (not the one he use)
Handshake 🤝 brother
I tried these in Portugal once and i was absolutely terrified by its look, i remember the taste wasn’t that bad i enjoyed it
Where do you come from?
WHAT'S THE PRICE?
Is that a animal? Or a plant??
Same. They were kind of smokey, but not bad. Not as good as the other seafood we tried but they were fine.
Haha Im in Portugal rn on holiday lol
They are worth it!
It's an experience eating them!
Tom 😎
As a lover of seafood, seeing this just made me really hungry. 😋
Anyone else have goosebumps (not the good kind) watching those barnacles?
Yes! Those barnacles looks nasty 🤢🤢🤢
@@excel6440 I can't explain why it's giving me goosebumps, but I just can't stand it 😖
It looks creepy
I know!!! Yuck
You might have trypophobia. It's a phobia of small packed circles or clusters. People that have it get a sensation of fear or disgust.
"Some say they taste like crab or lobster." Then why not eat crab or lobster for 7 times less money? They just walk right into the traps.
Well then, might as well eat shrimp
It's _like_ it. Not exactly the same. (Although I don't see myself shelling out that much on a single meal. But I understand the draw.)
some people like coffee made from the beans that cats eat and shit out. if you can convince some "influencer" something is special, it's price goes to the moon in 2021 baby!
People are just dumb
Maybe the same reason why people prefer eating chicken wings more than chicken thighs even though they're 4x more expensive but taste almost the same 😂
you are just bunch of uncultured kids, everything has its own taste set of minerals and bodyfeel. i wish you to try all types of seafood to understand.
I see it for the first time, very interesting, thank you ❣️!
Good coverage and piece 👍
I travelled to Portugal many times before, and I know a friend there who is a fisher and he once brought some goosenecks from a trip and explained how difficult it was to get them. They were delicious! Most of the time expensive food isn’t that great but they were just amazing from the texture to the taste, if you get your hands on them you are very lucky.
That's quite alright friend, we'll stick to the delicacies of cheeseburgers and fries over here.
I think these percebes are somewhat common in Baja California, my aunt once brought them and said "they eat these in Spain" and started cooking them, they weren't bad but they really just tasted salty and not much more.
No los conocia :0 ni sabia que se podian obtener en México
I would love to taste it someday
There different types of percebes around the world the ones in the found off the coast of Portugal and Galicia are considered to be the best in the world why I don't know
I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING SO BUZZAR LIKE THIS. It’s so cool I’m the beginning it says it grows in Spain I was like no wonder never heard of never seen it then it’s a whole video about Vancouver I was like I grow up here for almost my entire life and never heard of this thing... can’t wait to try one now!
I used to see these all the time as a kid in the Puget Sound in WA. Never knew you could harvest them!
No specialized tools, no helmet or knee protection, not even gloves. If that's a recurrent harvest spot put a pole an a lifeline. That's PURE negligence.
Meanwhile the cameraman has absolutely no issue getting onto the rock or anything lol.
Gata over dramatize everything to make it seem worse than it really is
Lol
Yeahhh,,,this series is basically just about a group of people who want to live without doing anything by exploiting Mother Nature and other people without any regret or shame!!!!
It's harder just because he's taking the barnacles without wasting it.
Camera man has a plot armour
I would definitely find something that makes them release. Hair dryer, table salt, boiling water. Lol
I got excited thinking they would show how they do it in Galicia. It’s nuts.
If they cost that much and taste like lobster, crab or clams I'll just have lobster, crab or clams.
I think the point is that they taste like all of them at once.
The texture looks really good though; like a thick mushroom stock but meaty. Like biting into a sausage but I’m not sure what they’re like
@@mikealaniz7236 hell, just eat them all at once
Lobsters partner for life so its wicked to eat them.
Oh look wow Sukuna's fingers, jokes aside its really amazing to hear these stuffs
In Asia, they live in large quantities in tidal pools where waves do not reach, and even children can easily catch them.
Like abalone and lobster, it is a snack for children living near the sea.
I feel like anything creature with a heartbeat is a snack for children in all of Asia lol.
Why just children
This seems super safe compared to the way they are harvested in Spain, saw it on Gordon Ramsay's Uncharted Episode.
They were in the water and had waves crashing against them much more dangerous and higher risk of being swept away than this.
That episode was in Portugal
@@MikeLuisCozinheiro75 you're most likely right its been a while since ive seen it but still was crazy compared to this
@@KebabEater i do that almost everyday . Is dangerous yes .
Did you notice they used closed field focus and zoom to make it seem way more dangerous than it was? Lol
@@MikeLuisCozinheiro75 No it wasn't. That episode was filmed in Galicia, northern Spain.
Shout out to the brave soul that decided to try these. I would have never thought, "Yeah, I should taste these alien looking things."
They were seriously hungry back then.
They should be called "dinosaur claw". That would be a lot cooler.
In portugal sometimes i go get barnacles on the beach to give myself a threat, but even in the beach they are not a easy task to pick, since u only find them on the low tide and on the cracks or caves in the rocks, its not uncommon to get a couple of cuts in the hands from removing them from the rock cracks
Close to santa Cruz In Northern California there a small town called Davenport, me and my buddy would have a blast harvesting sea snails, uni, and these goose barnacles, once he told me they were a delicacy in Spain and people pay good money for them i realized why, they are tasty as hell! Steamed with the skin on preserves that good salty sea flavor with some melted butter to dip in! Yum
Or Garlic butter dip or a red curry paste cream stunning
I live in SoCal and these things are everywhere.
I live in Boulder creek no way !
Shhhhhh... there is no Davenport... this is not the town you're looking for. 😉🤫🤭
I had some of the best Mexican food ever in Davenport last year
Are you kidding me? Those things grow literally everywhere on the Oregon Coast.
Time to make a business!
My thoughts exactly.
Don't let the opportunity go away dude.
Go business
oregon, here i come
Thank you Chef for calling them Dinosaur's toes... That thought of them looking like some monster's toe was running in the back of my mind the entire time I was watching the video.
Best "Percebes" is in Vila do Bispo, Portugal.
Just got back from Nazare Portugal. Had them as a snack while having beers and they were delicious. Not expensive really. 300grams, enough for 2 was about 10 euro. They taste very much like the sea, hence good with beer as a salty snack. Think clam and oyster. Slightly sweet with a consistency of tender calamari.
You'll be a good food reviewer!
@@vienna-mf8xb lol I agree, 😆
Exactly. It's like you are eating the sea.
Depends of the quality , i have eaten wome that cost around 50 $ a pound and they are very very different from the 10$ pound kind they have much more flavor
@@albertoencinar95 Could also be the difference in price of Portugal vs. Vancouver. Meaning the cost of food and drink is cheaper there and the rocks they pick them off are right in front of the bar I was at. I couldn’t tell you what to look for in quality but the size of the meat was around 2-3cm.
First, you take the dinglepop, and you smooth it out with a bunch of schleem. The schleem is then repurposed for later batches.
Then you take the dinglebop and push it through the grumbo, where the fleeb is rubbed against it. It's important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice.
Then a Shlami shows up and he rubs it, and spits on it.
Then you cut the fleeb. There's several hizzards in the way.
The blaffs rub against the chumbles, and the plubus and grumbo are shaved away.
That leaves you with a regular old plumbus!
And then you put the lotion in the basket
@@ricardosilvaesousa2838 or it gets the hose again
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This Gooseneck Barnacles is soo Delicious after high tide and Typoon in the Philippines the woods or bamboo flooting in the Sea have many barnacles my Mother will taking and cooking with ginger so delicious I love it
Nice video; this was all news to me.
It seems like you could build big plates that can be lowered and raised that the barnicles grow on to make harvesting way easier.
Depends on the conditions that the barnacles require if they’re being grown on farms specific for them.
Developing a way to do this in natural habitats can alter the ecology of an environment which can also be complicated
I scraped some off a rock in Oregon. Par boiled on the beach in the morning with a little garlic bread. Delicious! I didn't know i was eating something so expensive. No one around here bothers with them.
I cook them in diluted sea water 👍
@@NuttinChunkySpunk Yea, thats what i did. It was really low tide in the morning. Walked way out and got a few, but just boiled straight sea water. They take less than a minute.
@manny Like crab. After boiling, you just pull that thing apart and there's something like a tube inside.
I have tried them a few times but here in Oregon you can legally only harvest 10 a day as part of your 10 unlisted marine invertebrates. So few people eat them around here wish it was more.
@@safewayslavehoppy i don't really count. There really aren't rules out on the oregon beach because as a game warden put it to me. "we aren't going to walk all the way out there to check your tag"
I live in HK and we literally get them for free without risking our lives lol, I never even knew that this was considered as luxury. It's one of my most favorite seafoods.
Never heard of it but I'd like to try it
In South Korea, we call them "Turtle's feet". We have a lot of rocky water borders, and there are a lot of these. We usually steam it and eat it as a snack.
거북손은 라면이죠

Just like eating foreskin.
@@malalaika it kinda looks gross a lil bit

Satisfying to see them removed from the rocks and especially from turtle shells.
Bcc really is British beautiful Colombia ❤ only been there once, but I'm still impressed! I really want to go again... Especially after seeing this! As I also want to visit Boston for the lobsters ♥️
Named the thing a million times without telling anything about what it is. Well done.
Omg yessss
Are you indicating that you don't know what a barnacle is???!!
I live in the UK and we have a crustacean called an ormar and it is considered a local delicacy however due to over hunting for their meat as well as their shells, they are Extremely EXTREMELY EXTREMELY RARE TO FIND and as an avid rock pooler I have only ever seen one in my twenty three years and there has only ever been ten sightings since 2000 to current and are considered illegal to fish all because they were heavily over fished and this is a warning of over fishing and unfortunately when the numbers of a species goes down their price tag goes up for an example a rhino just for its horn can fetch you $55,000 for a piece of ivory to be used as a foot stall and if it’s from a black rhino then it’s horn could easily fetch you several hundred thousand dollars due to their extreme rarity.

In Japan we call them “Kamenote” which means “legs of turtle” put into miso soup.
But not popular. Name and looks is gross tho.
亀の手 literally turtle hands
食べてる人に失礼ですからあまり'gross'とか使わん方がいいですよ
I wonder if using a spade or shovel would make harvesting easier?
that is incredibly labor intensive! no wonder they’re so expensive
It is nice to know that they don’t exploit this business by over fishing
For now
Now everyone will be curious to harvest themselves....
@@TheFatblob25 but there's laws 🤷♀️
Over fishing? What do you mean fishing?
you see if it taste like lobster ima just buy a lobster with more meat but hey you do you

They tell us that he's risking his life harvesting on the rocks, but they do not tell us why he isn't wearing a helmet and a life vest?
And no gloves including

- Why Gooseneck Barnacles Are So Expensive | So Expensive
- I don't know | I don't know
Tastes like clam and costs a kidney a kilo? Eat damn clams then lol
True.
Also it tastes like 'ocean' . Don't know why that doesn't sound appetising
almost eveything in europe and america are so damn expensive
in asia, it literally half the price
🤣🤣
If it's so valuable I'm surprised that the process for harvesting them hasn't been automated somehow yet
Over harvesting is a thing
I mean, i think its just expensive in that area, they're pretty common all over central california, its just not particularly sought after in the area
Well they are expensive because there isnt a way todo so. That is the case with alot of expensive goods.
The food is shit imagine someone found apples that were blue and tasted like shit nobody cares but the rich do
Literally every job comes with the possibility of death.
We have these everywhere where I live!
My brother talks about how barnacles grow heavily on fronts of ships he told me the amount was amazing and expensive... They're very tasty..
