Feel like soft rubbery jelly. They are apparently edible but I have never had the courage to try.

Auricularia auricula, Hirneola auricula-judae is its Latin name [or names]. Mycologists have re classified it . just like the botanists and the plants.
when they get tatty they look as they have been in a fight.
