Whale Snot

Every time I wander along a beach I find myself looking out for whale snot (ambergris). I have no idea what it looks like, but that doesn’t stop me searching. I am guessing it is large amounts of a gelatinous substance, that ranges in colour from clear, to yellow and even green depending on the state of the whale’s sinus passages. At about $60,000 US paid per kilo, I am going to keep looking. I wonder how you make whale’s sneeze ? I wonder if they ever get hayfever……..?
