I had my first mussels in Cherbourg, Franc . . yum!

when I moved to Rhode Island in 1976, a friend was fishing Narragansett Bay with a small dragger. Every once in a while he would fetch up a clump of mussels. Fish dock wouldn't look at them. He couldn't give them away . . except to me (yum again!).
Two years later, someone started a mussel farm in Narragansett Bay.
My friend had the same problem with squid . . . couldn't give it away in Newport. Then someone started selling calamari in restaurants . . . funny. Tastes just like squid to me!
