A million bucks for whale vomit?

It could be upchuck for megabucks! It's called Ambergris or floating gold. Ambergris, is the vomit of the sperm whale, it comes out almost clear and turns darker over time. It is a very rare substance and could fetch a thousand dollars a pound. The perfume industry covets this natural form of perfume ingredient largely because of it's rarity and because most manufacturers have switched to synthetic versions. If you are strolling the beach and should happend to trip over some you should be abe to find a buyer in the perfume industry no problem. Time to go surfing!
All we can say is good luck findin' some upchuck
