See Urchin?

During today's lunch hour, one of my co-workers insisted on taking me for a drive because there was something she wanted to show me. After reaching the oceanside, We got out of the car and walked along a ledge by the sea, while she visually scoured the sand and rocks below for this mysterious "something". Having no luck, she asked me if I had a change of clothes at work so that we could wade in the water to look. I had no extra clothes, so we headed back to work without accomplishing our mission.

On the return trip, she finally revealed to me that we had been searching for uni (sea urchin) in a special place she had recently discovered. I asked her why all the secrecy, to which she responded that it is illegal for ordinary citizens to catch sea urchin, so if one did catch one and eat it, it would have to remain a secret forever.

Successfully hunting a whale might be a difficult task to complete during a lunch break.

If you think uni's gross, you ain't tasted NOTHIN' yet, Steph!
