Barnacles are crustaceans. They are related to lobsters, shrimps, clams, and crabs! I’m not surprised they are edible. For those who say Asians eat everything, do you forget French eat snails? I also heard of westerners eating horses , pigeons, reindeers, rabbits, kangaroo. Yuck!

​@@dwilawan A hypocrite is what you are. Chicken can live pretty long in captivity too, up to 8-10 years, to refuse beef and lamb based on a difference of a couple of years is pretty arbitrary. And chicken are susceptible to the same viruses as pigeons are, and if that's your measure you're going to have to starve, because every animal, plant and other organism is just as susceptible to viruses. And rabbits which are herbivores are not in any way comparable to dogs which are carnivores.

When you see them, it's very hard to believe barnacles are related to crabs, lobsters and so on, but they, too are crustaceans. It only goes to show how adaptable that kind of animal is.

That's why I watched, pure curiosity about how to deal with the pesky critters!
