No, and after your warning I'm really glad that I didn't.
Thanks,

Edit: Where were you when I fried my mouth sticking the whole lump of wasabi in my mouth?
no, i have never eaten the shell. ew
true storey: Went to a sushi place on a first date. Never had edamame before. Thought it was a green bean. Ate the whole bowl--shells and all, because I didn't want to be rude. Later date says, " I've never seen a person do that before, Do they taste good?"
I never did that. Not yet. But I might try on my next visit to the Japanese restaraunt to see the surprise.
I almost did. The first time I tried Edamame was at a benefit event where they offered a vegetarian buffet. I picked up several because I thought they looked similar to snow peas. I happily popped a couple into my mouth and started chewing. After several moments of chewing I realized that they weren't breaking down, and that I had made a huge mistake. I kept the pods in my mouth for several minutes until I was sure no one would see me spit them into a napkin. I was so embarrassed!
