    I’d hardly call it a delicacy. I’ve had it a couple of times and hate the texture.

      The term delicacy typically is to do with things like the rarity/speciality of the food and care/attention during preparation. It doesn’t necessarily mean tastes amazing or anything like that

      I’d guess a lot of people would feel similarly about many foods considered delicacies.

        I get that. I’ve seen it at tons of places that wouldn’t lead me to believe it has some special status. I’ve also never heard a japanese say it is a delicacy either.
