Delete " in my file

Hi, all I need to do is delete " from my file. Normally I would open this file and just delete it using the replace function but this file is massive and crashes my computer every time I open it.

So an example of my file looks like this (tab separated)

"joe" "jack" "bob"

and I want it to look like this

joe jack bob

Thanks

sed -e 's/\"//g' filename > newfile

or for inline editing:

sed -i -e  's/\"//g' filename

tr -d '"'

should delete the " character
