The wing tips of some rays are delicious. The ones I know to be tasty Atlantic species (I've only been offerred those), are benthic (they stay near the bottom) and predators (as opposed to filter feeders). These are taxonomically close to shark, and they taste like it. REmember that they're called "stingray" for a reason, and avoid the tail. Also note that some rays, like California's Torpedo Ray, use a mechanism that may be similar to the Electric Eel, in that they produce a SERIOUS electrical charge, that can easily knock you down. Also, in the tropics in particular, these are "tourist fish". Lots of people visit their basking grounds and, as the animals are no longer aggressive or fearful, and are fed by tourists, the locals (who make money from this phenomenon) and the tourists (whi think this fish is friendly) present a real danger if you decide to fish these up. My advice? Check with the locals first to see if you can eat them. Take only enough for dinner and then stop -- no overfishing. Don't make a show of it.

No, they aren't. You can eat jellyfish by first urinating on it to neutralise the toxins. Then boiling them in milk so bring out the flavour. As for sea snakes, you must first remove the skin and leave in a pile of faeces for 4 - 7 days. Stingrays on the other hand is a more difficult situation. Firstly bite off the deadly barb with your teeth. After that insert the harmless tail into your bottom. This makes it easier to cook. Then shave off the outer layer of the skin. Smear chicken guts on the newly shaved stingray and chuck it on the barbie.

Hope that helped x0x0x0
