What are we eating when we eat a sea urchin?
This small marine animal belongs to the echinoderm family, which also includes starfish. Its name means "hedgehog skin" in Greek, hence its nickname "hedgehog" or "chestnut of the sea."
It is an invertebrate, meaning it has no skeleton—more precisely, no vertebral column. It has neither eyes nor a brain... but it does have five teeth! Its many spines help it break apart and move around. Sea urchins live in saltwater, under rocky areas or in vast sandy expanses.
