Your experience with ACV and kelp(seaweed)

Your opinion and experience?

I was just thinking about seaweed for iodine the other day, you could probably rinse then soak it raw in room temp water to make a kind of tea.
Would probably taste interesting...

Your opinion and experience?

i'm not sure what you're looking for but i harvested about 10 types of seaweed in Puget Sound, USA and all tasted great fresh or dried; i never rinsed them.  one, iridea, tastes like raw beef to me. 

i'm currently in the filipines and the local wet market has several seaweeds; one called lato or tiny bubbles by the locals is delicious;  the flavor and texture reminds me of fucus.

iridea:
Caulerpa lentillifera

lato:

fucus:

bull kelp; (my namesake)
Nereocystis  leutkeana

i haven't harvested in puget Sound for about 20 years but i can suggest harvest dates if anyone is interested in gathering seaweeds there.
