#2 daughter works for a seafood importer......... hence we get cheap
seafood for Christmas :-)

She's just sent me a whole range of new products that they are
carrying.

This Christmas is going to be a slightly different one from previous
years.

For a start, there's these........

They look very different and tasty. You've got to stop with this stuff.
I'm still figuring out your Wattle Seed thread 😉

safe to eat"

I *knew* I was right all these years!!

After you! 😉

We also have other new items such as Magaso, Arctic Surf Clams (their
tongues!!) Sea scallops frozen fresh on the boat within 1 hour of
capture, and easy snap crab claws (they've been laser scored for ease
of access!!)

I'm betting those are absolutley delish. I know you'll keep us posted.
I'm getting ready for Thanksgiving. I'm just in the mood this year.
Bleh.

Interesting in light of the following, which relates to frozen NZ mussels
rather
than the chilled ones you speak of, but still surprising in its
forcefulness:

My query to Aquaculture NZ, which markets frozen mussels into the US:

Sent: 21 April 2007 9:39 AM
To: Nicola Symonds
Subject: frozen mussels that do not open
This may be a silly question...

I have had a few of your mussels not open when cooked properly. Is this

a problem (as it is with live mussels) or can they all be eaten? Are there

any guidelines for this concern?

The response:

Hi .....

If mussels do not open when heated then you should not eat them. Instead
discard all unopened mussels

I hope that answers your query if you require further information please
feel free to contact me

Regards
