If you’re headed to the Caribbean for Spring Break, give conch a try. Conch is very mild, but not at all tasteless- similar to fresh scallops. It can be chewy if overcooked, but when uncooked or cooked properly, it is tender with a texture similar to al dente pasta.
This is my interpretation of what our snorkel boat captain dictated to me [2]. The kids loved it, in spite of being initially freaked out by watching our conch being caught and dispatched.
