Why buy these if you're going to do that? Just buy the chopped clams if you don't like the bellies! These are going on my "must buy" list when I make a trip to Trader Joe's.Liza M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07502895095411290741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-25340205432281864952016-06-01T00:06:06.633-04:002016-06-01T00:06:06.633-04:00Never again.

I can't eat that. Some consider the "full belly" clam thing a delicacy, say it's just plankton. Yeah, it's clam poop before it's been expelled. Took half hour per can but I sliced open each clam, squeezed out the black solid chunks & rinsed them out. I don't want to get sick, there's no way that's going into my linguine.

The oil gives it some extra flavor.bonnjillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999568046599761603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233184155385734517.post-5805889956972002892012-06-08T09:19:30.119-04:002012-06-08T09:19:30.119-04:00Actually, "cherrystone" is a comment on ...Actually, "cherrystone" is a comment on the size of the clam.
