Those seared scallops on your plate used to have a life. Scallops: Scallops move around in their environment, and do so in a pretty impressive fashion. These tasty mollusks clap their shell together to swim. Oysters: These babies are totally immobile. Oysters are rooted to whatever surface they attach their shell.
No fancy swimming for them. But, they do have feet! Unfortunately, mussels typically neglect to put their feet to use, and prefer to stay attached to a surface. Too corny? Oh well. Some are definitely more attractive than others, but none lack flavor! The ratings are in, and here are the results for the good, the bad and the ugly:.
Not only are they talented swimmers, they also have two hinged shells that resemble colorful seashells. Talented AND pretty? Fun fact!
Scallops lie on the sea or bay bottom and move by using the adductor muscle to open and close their valves, thereby pushing water out of the shell from around the hinge and achieving locomotion. The scallop also has a set of blue eyes that can, though weak, see movement close by and take evasive action from predators. While everything inside the shells of both clams and scallops can be eaten, the adductor muscle is the part that people most enjoy eating.
Because the scallop uses this muscle to swim, the adductor in the scallop, also called the "eye," grows much larger than that of the clam. Bert Wylen began writing professionally in What Eats Mussels?
