bigcountry I have never heard of people eating cow nosed rays, but I beleive you may be talking about sting rays which get a lot bigger than cow nose rays and their wings are some fine eating, firm white meat that taste just like scallop, until the FDA figured out how to test for it, there was a lot of sting ray that were sold in resteraunts as scallop, they just skinned the fins and used a cookie cutter to cut out "scallops"!
