I was researching them for a science project and it came up. Did you know they are a delicacy in the Far East?

good luck finding them....and when you do they will be expensive..
Sea cucumbers are harmless. Unfortunately, they are good to eat and are considered a delicacy by many cultures. Did you know that a ton of dried sea cucumbers will fetch as much as a million dollars in some countries? This has lead to uncontrolled exploitation of sea cucumbers around the world. In some places they have almost completely disappeared. Several projects (e.g. Solomon Island) are currently underway to start growing sea cucumbers in aquaculture farms to try and reduce the fishing pressure on sea cucumbers. Sea cucumbers are seriously endangered in many parts of the world.

If they are a delicacy in the Far East, then I would look to Asian groceries for a supply. Good luck!

Haha, I had one of those things throw up on me. It was pretty gross.
You can try looking for an Asian grocery near where you live.

Please dont. Now you have hundreds more curious people looking for these endangered creatures. Did you know that the ones caught nowdays are smaller and smaller due to overfishing?
