Pyura chilensis is a tunicate that somewhat resembles a mass of organs inside a rock. It is often found in dense aggregations in the intertidal and subtidal coast of Chile and Peru. It is a filter feeder that eats by sucking in seawater and filtering out microorganisms. The meat, which has a strong flavor, can be eaten raw or cooked. Its taste has been described as like that of iodine[8] or "something like a sea urchin though less delicate in flavor" and a "slightly bitter, soapy taste".
