My invertebrate zoology professor at San Diego State studied abalone for his
dissertation research. He told me they tasted like cardboard. Is the thing
so muscular you have to pound it like a round steak to make it chewable? If
so, I'll stick with oysters and crawfish.

It is not illegal to go Abalone-ing on the CA coast. I grew-up 
Abalone-ing (the CA coast between Monterey and San Francisco), and 
after pounding the crap out of that piece of muscle, it wasn't really 
my favorite food. But my neighbors seemed to love it. I traded a lot 
of Abalone for Halibut and Ling cod.
