Answer 4

Well yes they are but you don't want to eat them raw because they carry some rare kind of parasite that causes Meningitis.  Also I found out that banana slugs gnaw off their own p***s during mating to disengage.  Now do you want to go putting something that gnaws off it's own p***s to disengage from s*x in your mouth?  I tell you what?  I wouldn't do it.
