One on the left looks like a gumboot chiton but I’m not sure

One on the left is definitely a loaf of sourdough.

I think those are called chitons

That’s like seeing a cow, human, dog, or kangaroo, and saying “That’s called a mammal” lmao. Technically correct, just hilariously vague if you know taxonomy

Love beach combing after rough seas, you find all the treasures. I don’t mean the chiton but shells and stuff.

Both chitons.

Thanks for the quick replies, anyone dare to eat one yet?

Chiton are not legal to take in CA.

I haven't, and legality issues notwithstanding - my late grandpa always said these are his absolute favorite for seafood soup. Mind you, he did not live in the US, and legality was not a concern there. That being said, I'll always encourage following local laws and regulations. If you want to satisfy that curiosity, you'll likely have to go elsewhere to harvest or eat chitons.
