Not 100% this isnt a bit of bathroom sponge! But it was found on kent coast near the dead mans fingers at Joss bay. Any ideas what it is?  |

Looks like Chicken of the Woods bracket fungus, fry it up and see what it tastes like, don't add salt, just pepper. Only joking.
DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME BOYS & GIRLS 
It could be sponge, and you don't know where its been - yuk, on the other hand it's not this polystyrene type stuff is it ?

Yeah I'd agree that that is probably a sponge this time around, but I wouldn't go any further on an ID than that. Sponges in general are incredibly difficult to ID, and involve extremely detailed examination. If you took a piece home you may be able to get a bit further if you have the patience, btu I wouldn't ID from a photo. |

Thanks, nice to know it is actually sponge for sure rather than a piece of insulation from something! | | |
