    Asking the real questions,

    Is that just a thick ass phospholipid bi-layer?

    What’s going on here and can I eat that thing?

    What does cytoplasm taste like?

      My hypothesis would be that, in order to keep that membrane taut, the internal salinity would have to be fairly close to the exterior salinity, otherwise it would shrink due to hypertonicity. That cytoplasm will probably just taste like slimy seawater
