Hey Jellyfishie, Part VI

 The Mnemiopsis jellyfish has been found in the Mediterranean.
This is not a problem for swimmers: it isn't poisonous.  It is, however, a problem for fish-lovers.  You see, Mnemiopsis eats fish.  And it's very good at it.  In the Black Sea, for example, they caused the collapse of fisheries due to their habit of eating fish.
Some scientists say that the bloom of Mnemiopsis is a symptom of a larger effect- jellyfish defeating non-jelly fish for control of the oceans due to overfishing and pollution.  This would be an absolutely hugemongous ecosystem shift, although jellyfish-eating animals might like it.  And while jellyfish don't have brains, normal fish are pretty stupid as well- the Great White Shark's brain weighs under 50 grams.
I wonder how jellyfish taste?
